[Resolute of Brooklyn vs. Keystone 6/29/1865] Although short two men, he [the captain of the Resolute] refused to add two as good Philadelphia players, or allow his opponents to withdraw two of their men in order to more equalize the game. Philadelphia Sunday Mercury July 2, 1865

[Resolute of Brooklyn vs. Camden 6/30/1865] The Resolutes did not make their appearance till about 4 o’clock, and with only six men equipped for play, Messrs. Wilkins and C. Gaskill, of the Athletic, and Mulholland, of the Keystone, were selected to make up the “regulation nine,” and play commenced. Philadelphia Sunday Mercury July 2, 1865
