[Athletic vs. Atlantic 9/16/1867] The great contest attracted the largest gathering that has ever been within the [Union] grounds. The number present could not have been less than 10,000, many of them being visitors from Philadelphia and adjacent ball-playing centers. The fine accommodations afforded for ladies attracted hundreds of the fair sex, who watched the play with all the eagerness of novices and the interest of veterans.
