...whole series. Both nines yesterday were well settled to their work, and were fairly matched. We need not comment upon the plucky game which our representatives were playing, but desire to express our confidence in the result. We trust that another year will again see the CRIMSON triumphant. The steadiest play is called for in a contest against so powerful and well organized a nine as the "Peachblows," but the victory, if attained, will only reflect the more credit.
