Text | A grand match between the Athletics and Camdens, in aid of the Solders' and Sailor's Fair, has been arranged to take place on Wednesday next, Nov. 1 st, on the Athletic ground, at Fifteenth street and Columbia avenue. Ont his interesting and impressive occasion, every one, except the eighteen players, will pay twenty-five cents for admission. Five thousand tickets have been printed, and it is hoped all will be sold. It is understood that the Athetics will shortly play a nine picked from all Philadelphia, in aid of the same noble charity. Such an encounter would attract twenty thousand spectators. Philadelphia Press October 26, 1865 [Atlantic vs. Athletic 10/30/1865] The return game will be played next Monday, on the Capitoline grounds, at half-past one o'clock. Another large crowd is looked for. Admission ten cents—ladies free,--not 25 cts, as in Philadelphia. Brooklyn Eagle October 31, 1865 |
