Text | The Cleveland Leader's Geneva correspondent says: “Richmond, the celebrated pitcher of the Worcesters, is a native of this place. He is one of a large and highly respected family. His father is a Baptist minister, as is also one of his brothers. He developed his baseball proclivities upon the Normal School-ground, and played a good game for a boy seven years ago.” Richmond graduated with honors at Brown University on June 15. In the language of Horace, one can say pilae jaculator audax—the bold hurler of the ball—is worthy of his success. |
