played we'll, but their foot were not
on their native heath, aul they were
compelled to succumb by q score of
II to 81 in favor Of Columbia. This
is their first match game, and they
were nervous, but they arc not
whipped, and intend to try their foes
again, probably in Winnsboro, at al
early day. The "Columbians' were
victorious only by reason of greater
age and weight. Onr boys ielded
beautifully, but were light at the bat.
The "Modocs," of Ridgeway, and
the "Chickasaws," of Liberty Hill,
will play at Ridgeway on Thursday

an ignorant dcludcd constituency, ho
