[from Chadwick's column]Among the regular amateur organizations of the Metropolis the most prominent is the Staten Island Cricket and Base Ball Association, which dates its birth from the Staten Island Cricket Club organization in 1872.This club was an off-shoot of the St. George Cricket Club, whose grounds have been at Hoboken for the past thirty years.A few of the old members—among them Mr. Cater—started a club at Staten Island, and out of this arose the present organization.The Sporting Life May 9, 1888[N.B. This club still exists as a cricket club.]
