New York Weekly, v. XXIV, no. 40, August 19, 1869 (Issue) |
| Author: |
Doesticks, Q. K. Philander, 1831-1875
|
| Date: |
August 19, 1869 |
| First Sentence: |
If this should prove to be the shortest of all possible Doesticks' articles, sufficient excuse must be found in the fact that I have been to-day to see a base ball match between two of the champion clubs of the country. |
| Last Sentence: |
I love the old game-no man loves it more, though most men play it better, but I do grieve to see it turned into a vehicle for the most bare-faced gambling, that ever our modern bare-faced gamblers could desire. |
