| Text | Mr. Hentry Chadwick, of the Clipper, sustained a serious pecuniary loss on the night of Jan. 9 from the almost entire destruction of the grist-mill at Noyac, Long Island, owned by him, the great thaw and rain-storm of that night causing the giving way of the mill-dam and the mill works, entailing a damage of nearly $2,000. Chicago Tribune January 30, 1881 the demise of the Cincinnati Club When the Cincinnati club was gently bounced from membership in the league at the Rochester meeting last December, a howl of rage went up from the Enquirer. President Hulburt and the league were to be annihilated, a new movement was to be started with plenty of money that would sweep the old crowd into everlasting oblivion. Cincinnati was to take the lead in this matter; the Enquirer had the rules and regulations already framed for adoption, and everything, in the eyes of the movers, was progressing. The result of all this is seen in the following paragraph from the Enquirer: “The Cincinnati club has thrown its affairs into court, and asked for the appointment of a receiver. It was compelled to do this from the fact that a few of the minor shareholders refused to pay their pro rata assessments. The improvements on the grounds will be sold at public sale to the highest bidder. A syndicate is forming of five or six prominent Cincinnatians, including several of the present heavy stockholders, who will buy in the grounds and reorganize for future operations. These gentlemen look forward to 1882.” Boston Herald January 30, 1881 |
