Dear sr-I have a hard luck story to tell you. While pr%petins in
he Rocky Mountains. forty miles from the railroad. I truck signs OF a
baseball mine, and began sinking a shaft I knew l hd II right for l
found marbles after boring ten feet We kept boring n after going n
hundred feet We came to a pocket of golf balls This val a goo sign and
re kept ". At last we m to astrata of as nice basebans as o. ever
saw In or life first League juniors" n dead reds" M then thu real
thing. We Immediately began hoisung them out. nut 70 were tumped
because here was 10 railroad facilities for shipping them. I then hit o n q
scheme. ! sent out AM hire forty old ball players, and stationed them a
intervals II one hundred yards apart. N this way W etook tut a large
quantity OF he basebans N started reaytns them to the railroad, which
ship them to New York. when what do o suppose happened'
President Lynch wired us tina thu. eagu la adopted the cork centre
ball, and the entire order was cancelled. Please advise us what to do with
the supply o hand. yours BILL OfElLLf
