William Barnie, who has successfully managed the Atlantic, of Brooklyn, for the past your years [N.B. This is false], has been engaged as manager of the Philadelphia Club. Mr. Barnie has had plenty of experience, and under his able management the Philadelphia Club will no doubt reap new laurels. Barnie is a good ball player and will prove serviceable, in case of necessity, as change catcher. He made his reputation years ago, and has caught for the best pitchers in the country. In 1876 he caught for Nolan, who was then the great curve pitcher with the Buckeye of Columbus. Philadelphia Times July 23, 1882 [Atlantic vs. Philadelphia 7/27/1877 Barnie catching for the Philas]
