| Description | (6 innings) (Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times: “The Actives have had the reputation of being the first of New York Juniors, while we believe the Resolutes claim the same as regards Brooklyn; but, as far as we can judge, there are a number of junior clubs belonging to the Convention which can excel the samples of either club on Saturday last. The Actives were not at all active, nor were the Resolutes very determined; … / We cannot refrain from noticing the utter apathy of the Actives after they found the game going against them—some smoking on the field and some sitting down. Such things are not very creditable to the club. / After the game, all hands retired to the house of the Resolutes, where a bountiful collation was served, to which the clubs did credit; after which the Actives marched to the boat, escorted by their friends, the Resolutes.”) |
