Turnstiles have been placed at both of the Delaware and Alabama street entrances. They are the old ones used by the St. Louis club last year. Indianapolis News April 29, 1878

Deacon White wears a mask

“Mercy!” screamed a lady in the Grand Stand Saturday, as Jim White put on his wire mask, “Mercy on me; they've got him muzzled!” Jim did look fierce. Cincinnati Enquirer April 29, 1878

“Why,” said President Hulbert at the Queen City Club Sunday night--”why, we'll crush that Club of yours; you haven't any pitcher or catcher.”

“But,” Mr. Hulbert, “didn't White catch for you in 1878” asked one gentleman.

“Yes; but he wasn't afraid to do it then. Do you call that man in a mask a catcher?” Cincinnati Enquirer May 8, 1878

[from a card from Hulbert:] It is true that if I had supposed any of the jokes passed between myself and any of the gentlemen privately entertaining myself and party would appear in print, I would have been more guarded, even in the friendly badinage incident to such occasions. Cincinnati Enquirer May 9, 1878
