Text | THE UNION GROUNDS, WILLIAMSBURGH. The proprietor of these grounds is doing everything in his power to make himself and his grounds popular. In addition to the accommodations provided last year, a large number of seats, purchased of the Mutual Club, are in process of removal from Hoboken to the grounds, and a cover stand will be erected for the members of the press in close proximity to the catcher’s position. The ground itself is perfectly level and beautifully laid out, and as a ball field it is without an equal. At all the grand matches to be played upon the Union grounds this year, the covered stands will be reserved for ladies–a provision which is justified by the increasing attendance of the fair sex at ball matches. |
