Another cold unpleasant day and no gate receipts.Here we were to have received $100.00.But my, there wasn’t [sic] 60 people on the ground so there was no show to get that amount.I wouldn’t let the players go on the ground until I had made some settlement.They wished us to play and said they would give us all the gate money.It was then near 4 Oclock, so I told them if they would give me $30.00 we would play.They gave me the amount and we played.
