Here's a challenge to the Olare ball
boys as per the following from last
week's Harrison Cleaver: In the ball
game at Clare last Friday between
Harrison and Clare, the latter won in
the few innings tbao were played by a
score of 3 to 21. It was a farce as none
of our boys played in their positions,
and the game put up by our boys was
simply a burlesque, and afforded the
audience us well as the Harrison boys
considerable amusement. If the Clare
team wants to play a game of genuine
base ball, the Harrison team is open
for an engagement. Just mention the
day.
