<p>Charles Peverelly, <em>The Book of American Pastimes</em>, page 497.</p>
<p>Information gleaned from articles in Portland's <em>Morning Oregonian</em>:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Oct 15 article</em>: The Clackamas club formed after the Pioneer club. This would place their formation no earlier than June, as the Pioneer club elected officers on June 2, 1866. (<em>June 5 article</em>)</li>
<li><em>Sep 24 article</em>: The Clackamas club obviously formed before an intrasquad match on September 22, 1866. Their first match against the Pioneer club was played 3 weeks later.</li>
</ul>
<p>In a baseball tournament played October, 1867, at the Oregon State Fair in Salem, the Tumwater and Clackamas BBCs of Oregon City competed. See the Portland <em>Morning Oregonian</em>, Oct. 10, Oct. 14, 1867</p>
<p>The <em>Oregon City Enterprise</em>, Oct. 27, 1866 reports on a game played Oct. 13th between the Clackamas and the Pioneer of Portland, the latter winning 77-45. Gives a box score.</p>
