Text | As the game had undergone some changes since its adoption in 1857, the Bowdoin Club detailed a committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Lowell, Gill and Forbush, to visit New York to witness some of the New York style of playing. This was the first of June 1860 and on their return the club at a special meeting extended an invitation to the Excelsiors of Brooklyn, who were then in their prime, to visit Boston and give our players a lesson or two in the game. |
