Pike was employed by the Cincinnati Club to obey orders on the ball field. McVey was employed to give these orders. Then, if Pike doesn't obey orders, he must not expect leniency, and it matters not whether the orders were right or wrong. A man engages to work under a foreman—can he expect to run counter to the foreman's will and keep his employment? Pike is a good ball-player, a gentleman and a “good fellow,” as all acquainted with him know. But he made a mistake in being too hasty, and then being too proud to acknowledge it before it became too late.
