Text | Dick Higham, after having accepted a proposition to play base-ball during the coming season with the Cincinnati Club, went back on Mr. Keck last Friday and signed to play with the Syracuse Stars. The contract for his engagement here was sent to him last week, one night, as we announced at the time. So certain was it that he would sign it that Captain Pike, relying on him, had assigned the Club positions as published by us Friday morning, with Higham at second base. When the word came Saturday night that Dick had positively jumped the Cincinnati engagement and signed with the Stars it could scarcely be credited. |
