Text | The Fremont (OH) Weekly Journal, Jan. 14, 1870 runs the reminiscences of a regular (and florid) contributor, "Fogy," who writes that on a recent hiking trip "We spoke of the games we played [as boys]: 'ball;' 'goal' (we pronounced it 'gool' when we mentioned it..." The date and place of this goal playing isn't specified. |
