[Atlantic vs. Union of Lansingburgh 6/21/1869] The fact is, Pratt met with a severe pecuniary loss by destruction by fire lately, and he is not, therefore, in the right trim for play. National Chronicle June 26, 1869

The Atlantics played a different nine to that they presented against the Cincinnati, inasmuch as Zettlein pitched in place of Pratt... This, we believe, will be the future disposition of the nine this season, as Pratt’s misfortune in losing his factory by fire will debar him from giving the necessary attention to practice. New York Sunday Mercury June 27 , 1869

...their pitcher, Tommy Pratt, had just suffered a severe loss by fire in Philadelphia, which required his unceasing attention, and rendered him totally unfit to play. National Chronicle November 20, 1869
