“Base-ball” was part of bank holiday festivities in the town of Harpenden, Hertfordshire. A brief notice in a local newspaper read as follows: “BANK HOLIDAY. Owing to the large number of holiday makers visiting Harpenden on Monday, the common presented quite an animated appearance. Cricket, base-ball, and various other games were started, and the visitors appeared to enjoy themselves.”
