| Text | Mr. Lewis Meacham, the base ball correspondent of the Herald in Chicago, died suddenly in that city yesterday. Boston Herald October 3, 1878 Mr. Lewis Meacham, who died in Chicago on Wednesday, was attached to the editorial staff of the Chicago Tribune for a number of years, and was a journalist of considerable ability. He was born in Vermont,... He is best known from his position as base-ball editor of the Tribune, which has for years been the acknowledged authority of the Northwest in matters pertaining to the national game. He was associated with Mr. A. G. Spalding in the publication of Spalding's Base Ball Guide, one of the best publications of that character ever issued. He has also done considerable editorial work for the National League, an institution in which he seemed especially interested. He was well-informed in all matters relating to base ball, and his opinion was often sought by learners at the game. He was a genial companion, very liberal-hearted, esteemed highly by his intimate friends, and he will be missed by a large circle of acquaintances. Boston Herald October 3, 1878 |
