| Text | Section 34 of an Indianapolis IN ordinance said: "Any person who shall on the Sabbath day play at cricket, bandy, cat, town ball, corner ball, or any other game of ball within the limits of the corporation, or shall engage in pitching quoits or dollars in any public place therein, shall on conviction pay the sum of one dollar for each offense." Indiana Journal, May 13, 1837. [See the very similar #1837.7, above.] Provided by Richard Hershberger, email of 2/2/2008. Richard points out that these very similar regulations give us the earliest citation for the term "town ball" he knows of. Note: A dollar fine for "pitching dollars?" |
