Text | Three games were announced in June 1862 for which net proceeds would be used for sick and wounded Union soldiers. The Eckfords and the Atlantics would play for a silver ball donated by the Continental Club. William Cammeyer provided the enclosed Union grounds without charge. Admission fees of 10 cents were projected to raise $6000 for soldiers' relief. "Reliif for the Sick and Wounded," Brooklyn Eagle, June 21, 1862, page 2. Contributed by Gregory Christiano, December 8, 2009. Note: is there a good poc hoc account of this project? |
