Barlow is sick in bed again, and it is doubtful whether he will ever again take the field. New York Sunday Mercury February 28, 1875

the origin of the National Association

The origin of the Professional Association is due to a suggestion made through the columns of the Mercury and Clipper early in 1871, by N. E. Young, of Washington, to the effect that there should be a meeting of the secretaries of the different professional clubs to arrange the dat of the respective tours they would take during 1871. This was approved of by all the clubs concerned, and the day selected by Mr. Young, March 17 th, was agreed upon. Jesse M. Thatcher, then the secretary of the Chicago club, suggested as an amendment that the meeting in question should take action upon the question of selecting umpires and adopting championship rules. Philadelphia Sunday Mercury February 28, 1875
