...North Adams, but early Saturday morning the team was driven over to Williams town in a coach. The reception which was given on their arrival was a most cordial one and the Williams men did all in their power to make the visit of the opposing nine a pleasant one. At one o'clock the game was called while the clouds which enshrouded the surrounding mountains seemed to presage a repetition of the Yale and Amherst ???. A strong wind was blowing from left field and the air was damp and chilly. The pitching was thus more uncertain than usual. Both...

It is to be hoped that a large audience will remain after the sports to encourage the team. As the game is on Holmes, the new seats and the pleasant weather alone ought to attract a large crowd.

From Northampton, all drove to Amherst in carriages. After reaching their destination the throng of supporters amused themselves with viewing the sights of the town until lunch was served at twelve o'clock. Then the clouds began to come up, and at the time game was called, at two o'clock, the weather was very threatening. Amherst went first to the bat, and scored three runs in the first...
