Text	[from a letter from John Joyce, secretary of the Cincinnati BBC, to William Hudson, secretary of the Atlantic BBC, dated April 27, 1869] We are ready to meet you on the following terms: One game on our grounds here, one game on your grounds, and if a third be necessary, at a time and place to be agreed upon before the first game is played. Gate money of the two or three games as may be played, to be shared equally and alike. The success of the Atlantic Nine in our city was great, and they would this year draw very large crowds. Your Nine can make a trip from your city here, play a game, and return in the space of four days, and at a cost not exceeding $250, as I presume you can get half fare tickets, and we have arranged at a first-class hotel for accommodations at two dollars per day, for visiting clubs, so I feel sure your visit to Cincinnati would be a pecuniary success, even if you played no club but ours.
