Weird. He probably had a V.D. from a less than savory woman. I have speculated for a long time that one of the main reasons Ballplayers died young at a faster rate than the general population in the 19th century was VD. It is interesting that sometimes teammates that hung around together would end up dying on almost the same day 5 or so years after their playing days ended.
Case in point Pete Browning and Chicken Wolf died within a year and a half from each other in the same sanitarium in Louisville, Kentucky about 5 years after their careers ended. Both were well known frequenters of Brothels and Alcoholics. Sounds like they both an eye for the same "Lady" back in the day and she took them both down. Just my theory Rhys
