1872 CT letter from one man to his cousin w great baseball content. Purchased right here on the NET thanks RamRam

the Baseball portion transcribed:

Cousin Dan I must tell you all about the ball game the Robin Hood BBC of Collinsville played with the 2nd Eagles BBC on A.O. Mills Ground. They were tied in the ninth inning and they played the tenth inning. The ninth inning they were [tied at] 26 and the tenth inning the Eagle BBC was 29 and the Robin Hood was 27. The Eagles won the ball by 2 tallies. Last Tuesday the Grant BBC played with the first nine of the Eagles. Collinsville won the ball by 16 or 17 tallies. This week Tuesday the Grant BBC are a goin to play with the Escort of Hartford. They are a goin to play [at] A.O. Mills Grounds. Saturday the Grants are a goin to play with the Plainville BBC on A.O. Mills Ground. The 21st of this month the Grants play with the Hartford of Hartford. They are a goin to play in Hartford. And that is all that I can think of now.
