Description	(New York Clipper: [extensive account, including letter from Olympic president Albert S. Flye, regarding dispute over rules to be followed in these two games]) The Boston Traveler, May 14, 1856, reports on a game to 100 tallies, "this morning" on the Commons, where the "Olympic Ball Company" defeated the "Green Mountain Boys." This is probably a MA rules game.
