The birth Of baseball on one section

French soldiers cast sidelong Chances
Of curiosity and scorn. II was evident
they were not optimistic In regard to
the success Of the innovation.
"After I had established the home

II swung at the ball, but II passed
me, and the Pollus laughed to see nj

that interest was beginning to grow.
The man who had thrown the ball back
volunteered TO pitch, and after n while
he was able to land the ball near
enough to the bat TO enable me to give
II n wallop that sent 1t way out into
the field.
There were some who by this time
had become sufficiently Interested to
accept an invitation TO do outfelder
work, and after - minutes Of betting

Rocking 10 us by this time and In n
short while there were enough P0ilus

So, taking the ball on the next fly,
