[reporting on the AA meeting of 3/13/1882] The following resolution was offered: “That the Cincinnati Club be requested not to expel Samuel Wise, but that an injunction be obtained from the United States District Court of Boston to prevent him from playing with the Boston Club, should he attempt to do so, as he has not fulfilled his contract with the Cincinnati Club.” This was proposed as a test case, the expenses to be paid by the association. This resolution was agreed to. Philadelphia Inquirer March 14, 1882

[reporting on the AA meeting of 3/13/1882] ...the cases of Wise, Troy and Holbert were taken up and discussed. … It was decided to instruct the Cincinnati Club not to expel Wise, but to retain him upon the players' roll until an injunction could be issued to prevent him from playing with the Boston nine, and thus make a test case of the matter. The result of this case will apply to those of both Troy and Holbert. Philadelphia Sunday Item March 19, 1882
