[Mutual vs. National of Washington 8/26/1867] There floated from the club house of the Nationals their usually victorious banner, together with several national flags, while upon the ground were stakes two small and beautiful blue silk flags, with heavy gold fringe, and in the center of the flats the latter “N.” To the left of the banners was a fly tend provided for the accommodation of those players who might have a leisure moment to rest during the game, which shielded them from the scorching rays of the sun.
