The Boston Base Ball Association has purchased of the Hammett heirs the South End grounds, occupied by the association for a number of years. The price paid was $100,000. The purchase was necessitated by the determination of the heirs to divide the property into lots to be sold at public auction. The Sporting Life November 26, 1884

[reporting on the Boston Club meeting] It was voted that the Directors be authorized to purchase the land in Boston now used by the corporation as a base-ball ground at a prince not exceeding $100,000, and to give the note of the corporation, secured by a mortgage on the purchased property, for such portion of the purchase money as they deem advisable, paying the residue in cash. Cincinnati Enquirer December 18, 1884
