The match game of base ball in this
place between our home team and the
Brown City club on Saturday last was
a very pleasant and interesting affair
The first two innings and one-half of
the third were played and not a score
made. Our boys being to bat they
broke the tie by making two runs. The
game lasted about four hours resulting
in victory of 80 to 20 in favor of
Brown City. 1t was the quietest game
we ever witnessed, not the least objec-
tionable language being used and NO
quarrelling whatever. The umpire
Frank Snyder, of Brown City, deserves
credit for the impartial decisions he
rendered. The boys from Brown City
departed well satisfied with the way
they enere treated while here.
