Text | At a meeting of the Directors of the Boston Union Club, held last evening, Bond and Brown were fined $100 each and then expelled, the former for insubordination and the latter for drunkenness. There is great indignation among Bond’s friends at the injustice done to him. On the 1 st of the month both players refused, after first notifying thge managers, to play longer unless their salaries were paid up. They didn’t get their money, and so quit. The club owed Bond $208 and Brown $180, which debt is reduced by the amount of the fine. The Boston Union players sympathize with Bond, and stoutly deny that he has been guilty of insubordination. St., quoting the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette |
