Origin Of Baseball.

Baseball probably grew out of the old
English schoolboy game of FOUNDERS. !"
Some have adduced evidence that It
came from the old New England game
Of "oae old cat" or two old cat"
which may be true. The old game Of
tipcat may also be related. It, was
played by four, six or eight players,
each standing by hole or base. One
Of the opposite party threw the cat to
batsman. and every time 1t was hit
they had to run about the bases.
Probably FOUNDERS and tipcat had the
same ancestry. At any rate, baseball
belongs to the family. An Englishman
seeing baseball game for the first
time might very properly say, This
Is FOUNDERS made scientific" We took
the old game, made rules ant amended
1t until now it stands forth as the ma
t!onal game of Manufacturing.
