| Data | “Base ball” was one of the games offered to students of the Primitive Methodist Sunday School of Maidenhead, Berkshire, at their annual treat held on the grounds of Taplow Court, Buckinghamshire. A newspaper reported that “the youngsters emptied their pockets of spare cash at some of the stalls, which were laden with toys, fruits, sweets, and refreshments . . . while others patronised Peter Cooley's cocoa nuts, &c. After dinner, French Tag, Base Ball, Cricket, and other games were indulged in.” |
