The defeat Of the Abbeville's by
the Rose Hill nine seems to have
disheartened the former to such an
extent as to almost cause them to
disband. For now when the Rose
Hills are having close games all to
themselves, the different members Of
the Abbeville Club are to be found
studying the history of the "four
kings" or sitting lazily ABOUT the
street corners crcking stale jokes.
The Rose Hill boys play regularly
and are steadily improving. They
claim tho championship Of the par.
ish but have no rivals. We under.
stand however that there are a few
lovers Of the game who are deter
mined ITO see them out" and are
rcckoned to give them a close con
test.
