...paid over to the committee with the request that it be given to the boat club. The committee decided to give it to the boat club, as requested, but they attached the condition that the boat club with this help should be out of debt by the end of the academic year. As some misunderstanding has existed in regard to the matter, it may be stated again that the base ball association assumed no more power in regard to the money than they had under the agreement; they did not affix the condition, that was done by the committee...

This is a bill which was presented to a member of the team who had been seriously injured, for accompanying him to New York, where he went towards the end of his convalescence to witness the game on Thanksgiving day. The member of the team doubtless understood that the surgeon accompanied him out of friendship and a desire to see the game, in which he was personally interested. The surgeon chose to construe the case as a matter of business...
