| Data | A newspaper reported that “base ball” was among the amusements offered at the annual fete for children of the Wesleyan Sunday Schools of West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. After assembling the children paraded through the village to a private park called Kilson's Meadow (“kindly lent for the occasion by Lady Dashwood”), “where they amused themselves, as children best know how, in swinging, base ball, cricket, &c., until tea was ready.” |
