| Description | The New York Clipper, April 18, 1868 reports that on the 4th inst., a game was played at Fort Wallace between soldiers of the 7th Cavalry and 5th Infantry, organized into 2 new teams, the Beecher and the Keogh. The Beecher won 73-45. The Keogh is undoubtedly named after Miles Keogh, an officer in the 7th who died at the Little Bighorn. Presumably the Beechers were the soldiers of the 5th. |
