Text | [Mutual vs. Philadelphia 9/24/1873] The “friends” of the Mutual club were over here in force. There was no mistaking the jet black-dyed moustache, the scarred face, the occasional blear eye, alog jaw and broken nose, and the flashy ensemble. The Gotham gambler carries a strong personalty with him, and it is difficult to mistake him. “I snick a seventy agen a hundred on the Muchuls” was the burden of their discourse, and so eager were they that it is safe and pleasant to assert that they feathered their nests poorly in Philadelphia. |
