Text | [reporting on the AA annual meeting of 12/12/1883]The Brooklyn, Indianapolis and Toledo Clubs were admitted without the slightest quibble, by a unanimous vote. The kick came on the Washington Club instead of Richmond, as was anticipated. The poor showing made by the representatives from the Capital City in regard to the prospects for a good team, raised some doubt in the minds of the delegates whether this application had enough financial backing to enter the list. After some discussion Mr. Hollingshead, the secretary of the club, was called in, and by his assurance on his honor that the schedule of games would be carried through faithfully, as far as the Washington club was concerned, it was also admitted. |
