[Haymaker vs. Mutual 5/25/1871] If the Mutual and Eckford Clubs have concluded to charge half a dollar admission on occasion of their games with professional opponents they have a perfect right to do so, but they should do it on the square and not as in this case, for it is nothing more nor less than an imposition to lead people to believe that the ordinary charge for admission is to be made, and then when the crowd have arrived at the grounds to notify them that the charge is double the price.
