On Thursday afternoon, June 4, Hartford's faithful played softball with the neighboring New Britain Club. This was the first in what is hoped will become an annual home and home series.
The game, played on Mr. Francis T. Fenn's large lawn, produced a lot of fun, though some of the ball playing was a little ragged. After an uncounted number of innings and probably some uncounted runs, the final score was a tie, 6-6.
