Description

"We are pleased to state that a Base Ball Club is about being organized in this borough [Huntingdon]. About twenty-five young men enrolled last Monday evening, and intend practicing until the necessary materials for the club shall have been purchased . . . . We have no doubt . . . Old Huntingdon's sons will be able to cope with their most successful comrades of the bat in neighboring counties."
