billy MCLAUGHLIN. The Savannah

account of a game of baseball played in
that city on the previous day between the
Savannahs and Louisvilles, in the presence
of 500 spectators, the Louisville Club win
ming by a score OF IL to I. The Times
speaks very favorably of Billy Mclaughlin,
who went from this city to catch for the
Savannahs, and says he plays fine game
behind the bat In this game however
he showed to better advantage at the bat
than behind it. He found the ball every
time up, but hit three times to the pitcher.
In the seventh inning, however, he drove
il To the center field fence, and made three
bags. In a private letter TO a friend in this
city he expresses great satisfaction with his
location, thinking Savannah a nice place,
full of pleasant people.
