Text

[reporting on the NL directors meeting] Voluminous documents accompanied [Jones's] petition showing that he had not signed with the Cincinnati Club, and the Common Pleas Court of Cleveland had given him a judgment against the Boston Club, which expelled him. The Board refused to reopen the case, or to have any thing to do with it. … Mr. Hurlbert says that the board had no other way left for it; that Jones, in failing to present his appeal papers to the annual meeting of 1880, lost his standing and that his case was now outlawed.
