O'Clock the Bostons arrived and forthwith there
was rush for seats behind the catchers position.
Before the play began the Boston men were
very busy answering anxious inquiries
to how they had enjoyed their south
ern trip. At Petersburg, Va, they played
the Old Dominion nine, famous for its discipline
The captain OF this august body astonished the
Bostonians by shouting IN military way, when he
won the toss, "old Dominion, to the feldl" The
Old Dominion did not so the reld but stood solid
phalanx waiting TOR orders. As each name and
position called OF they trotted with soldierly
aiacrity, TO their places, and the game began

in some respects. Passed balls were few, but his
