1t required twelve innings to decide
which team should carry away the victory
at Lyndonville last Saturday afternoon.
During the first part of the game, Barton
was well in the lead, but their opponents
crept up and tied the score in the ninth,
after which neither team scored until the
twelfth, when Barton secured the winning
run. Webster and Jenness held down
their opponents to six hits, while Thomp-
son was batted freely. The score will be
given later.
