Description

(5 innings)

(Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times: “The Bank Note men were mainly indebted to the Brothers Babcock’s superior knowledge and tactics in the game for their victory. The whole of the players, and a number of the members of the different craft, as well as base ball players from other clubs, were invited by the conquerors to partake of a collation, which was provided by Mr. Wild, the popular purveyor to the Atlantic Club.”)
