Text

"The Satterlees  are returned wounded veteran soldiers, stationed, temporarily, at the West Philadelphia Hospital. Great difficulty is experienced in obtaining a 'practiced nine,' from the fact of players being constantly returned to duty with their regiments. The Club, with more propriety, might be called the 'Impromptu'."
