on March 30 1860 that among others present at tne third class sup- 

 per were ##M##, "G.G. Kennedy's two sisters, Belie and Cordie." 



I am not sure that the name of tne last is spelt correct- 

 ly, but it is the oest that I can make of Father's handwri ting. 



Do you remember the Aristonican Ball Club (a. B.C.) of 



which you were elected president April 28th i860?' Father says, 



"Our club plays both cricket and Massachusetts Base Bali." on 



May 11, he writes, "The game of cricket is growing to be played 

 all oyer tne Union and so is TSase Ball, But there are two games 

 oi Base Bali; the Massachusetts and New York games, which differ 

 considerably. " 



I understand that tne modern game is more like the New 

 York game, and would be much obliged if you would tell me how the 

 Massachusetts game was played. /^Y^g^ f'H^^^ 



Also if you would tell me tne full name of the! H. mJlTTT 

 of wnicn a meeting was called on tne evening of May 22nd, 1860. 

 It appears tnat "tne prex" was J. Dorr and "Sect." was you. 



I have been thinking of editing a number of Father's diar- 

 ies, and publishing them, but Mr. Rieber says that it would take a 

 good deal of money to do this. therefore, I thought of selling the 

 book toy sibscription, but you see, I know so lew of Father's friends 

 to whom I could write concerning tnis, that 1 want to ask ii you 

 would be willing to nelp me in tnis matter in any way. I could, 

 of course, print circulars, such as father used when he published 

 his two books, myself, and thus be at no expense for them. hindly 

 let me near from you on this subject at your earliest convenience. 

 I am writing, concerning this to Uncle Jack Dorr, and also to Mrs. 

 Caswell of New York. 



I have not received anjt reply to me last letter to you, 

 that in which J asked you to please ask Mildred to copy the names 

 of the restft of her eecords for me, and enclosing a list of all mine. 



Hoping to see you in 1916, and that you and your family
