| Description | (Brooklyn Daily Eagle (5): “This was one of the best played games of this or any other season, there never having been any game to surpass it except the one played by the Excelsiors and Unions last Fall, when the score stood 7 to 4. The general play of both Stars and Hamiltons reached a high degree of excellence, and we are glad to see the Stars redeem themselves in the manner that they have in this match and the one with the Powhattans, from the bad score they made with the Olympics, on which occasion they discovered that no club can reasonably expect to win a game, even from an inferior adversary, if they see fit to indulge in loose play.”) |
