Text | Instruction and Amusement for the Young [New Haven, S. Babcock], page 23, per David Block, Baseball Before We Knew It, page 205. This chapbook has a wee drawing of ball play on the cover, and the poem "Papa's Advice to Herbert," which includes: "When grandmamma calls,/ Give up bat and balls,/ And quickly your lessons begin." Shades of John Bunyan! |
