<blockquote>I take pleasure in responding to your request by giving you a rough report of the game of base ball played by the St. Paul Olympic Club, this afternoon. I only regret that I am unable to give up a fuller and more detailed report; but the game, not being a matched one, the runs made on each running [inning ?], were not recorded, so I simply give you the sum total of the scoring on each side. The club plays every Tuesday and Saturday, at four o'clock p.m. on Fort Street, beyond the Bell Tower. It holds its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday June 7th at 7 1/2 p.m., in Irvine's Stone Block, when persons may present their names for enrollment as members. </blockquote>
