[from a letter by Mutrie] I am in constant receipt of letters from all over the country and from all sorts and condition of men, and women, too, for that matter, asking all kinds of questions concerning the game. Some of these are cranks, pure and simple; some are persons who seem to write just for the fun of the thing. On the other hand, many more are from men who are interested in base ball from love of the game—a game which I maintain is unequaled in its way.
