Description

"A proposal to organize a club to engage occasionally in the healthy exercise of Base and Wicket Ball, meets with general favor, and a meeting will be held at the office of E. Walker, Esq., tomorrow evening to make the necessary arrangements." Logansport Democratic Pharos, April 27, 1859

This is possibly the first base ball club in IN. 

"E. Walker" was NY-born lawyer Edwin Walker (1830-1910), who later moved to Chicago.
