Timothy L Carnody Highly Respected Citizen Remembered by Out Easter" as Star Pitcher for Old Acmes-Galaxy of Star Players in Those Days!-Game for
 "Blood" Recalled.

We never met the late MT. Car mody; we never talked with him, 50 there is little about him we can say, except purely from an observation point of view.
 But we remember him.
 Remember Him
 We have cause for that because 1t was he who pitched for the well known Acme ball club of the west end back in the Nincties against the so-called Brass Cities of our own section of the city. It was & game for blood" with a fifty dollar purse on the side. Tickets were sold in advance; no kid" had to pay, but he had to be part of the cheering squad. That's the way 1t was Out East, anyway. The game was played in the west end. Our old friend, Frank L. Donahue, "Red" pitched for the Brass Cities. Paul McAlenney Pete Fox, west ender, but a friend of Out East, played first base; Tom German, "Cud- dy" we called him, held down 2nd; Charley McMahon, Butch" was at 3rd base; Larry Doolan or Bowling at short. The fielders may have been KlobedanZ, and the two Phelans; we cannot re- call.
 Carmody, as we have said, pitched for the Acmes; we don't know who caught. but the two Freneys were active, Dr. John B. and Jim: 50 was Frank Becton and Tommy Brooks, and Fred Minnis, the latter, colorcd, @ fast fielder. and good hitter.
 Tn those days we speak of, we never got beyond the boundaries of the East End, except upon an occasion such aS noted. We knew no other part of the city; we were not like the young of today. Our annual out of town pilgrimage comprised a trip to High Rock Grove or & day at Coney Island with St. Joseph's T. A. Society.
 some tOOtcrB!
 But on the day in question, all of Out East flocked to the West End grounds. The business men out here bet plenty with the the business men of the west end. Tn, game opened and we yelled; our effort was to rattle Carmody; the order was given to us as we piled up along side first base. all of 200 strong. The late good Maurice Noonan. the reap cop of the time. shooed us back, but we didn't stay back very long. He knew us all, that is our parents, and he req lized fully we were out to see our team win.
 Our shouts and motions didn't seem to worry Pitcher Carmody in the least. He just stood in his box, pitched in his own way, and made a wonderful showing. But the hit- ting back of him was weak, and 50 1t was that the Brass Cities won. Red Donahue was just start ing out as a pitcher. and made fame for himself in this much fought for game. After that. Red was classed among the best pitch CTS of the city, against such fel- lows as Big Fred Klobedanz and Carmody. Klobedanz and Donafue went into the National League. But Carmody. quiet in his ways. never cared for baseball much, and only pitched in the home games of the city.
 Good Citizen
 Timmy Carmody was almost too quiet; he never said a word on the field, and few words off the field. And he followed this practice all through life. He had few inti- mates, except once when he served on the Board of Assessors under appointment by Mayor Wm. r.. Thoms. His voice even then was never above 6 whisper. And 1t was during his work as a me- chanic in the various factories where he was employed. He lived his life in his own way, read a great deal. and was never known to speak disrcspectfully of any, one. He minded his own business, never bothered about the faults of others, and died as he lived, a good and respected citizen.
