Data | “Baseball” was among the pastimes enjoyed by members of the Church of England Temperance Society of Newhaven, East Sussex, at an outing to the nearby hamlet of Bishop Stone. A newspaper reported that “the field was reached at about three o'clock, where stoolball, cricket, swinging, baseball, and other games were indulged in until five o'clock, when the company, numbering about 80, sat down to an excellent tea prepared by Mr. S. Stone. After tea the games were resumed until dusk, when the party returned to Newhaven by road, a very enjoyable time having been spent.” |
