America's National Game

Pages : 466
Book Description
This book is in great demand by baseball enthusiasts. Having been connected with every department of the game from player to magnate, Mr. Spalding has contributed a very important work to the game's history. As the invincible pitcher of the Boston Club, previous to the formation of the National League, his book of so many pages is an interesting record of events dating from the beginning of the great American pastime. It is not exactly a history of the game, but deals largely with incidents during the author's career, who was a player in the late 1860s and early 1870s, and helped organize the National League in 1876. One chapter, devoted to sundry topics, gives an account of the sale of the immortal "King Kelly," the original "$10,000 beauty," by Chicago to the Boston Club in the late 1880s. Other Chapters are devoted to the literature of the game, quoting several instances of the baseball paragrapher's art and also specimens of the distinct poetry of the pastime, of which "Casey at the Bat" is probably the most widely known. The Cincinnati Red Stockings Mr. Spalding gives credit as being the pioneer professional organization. It was not, however, until 1871 that professional baseball playing, as recognized today, was instituted. Mr. Spalding shows how cricket could not do for Americans. He says it is suitable for the British temperament, but not for the Yankee hustling spirit. He also tells how he worked into the game through a one-handed catch when a small boy. To lovers of baseball, whose name is legion, and whose number increases yearly, this book comprises in itself a whole library of useful information.

Book Description
In 1760 a union agreement was reached between Lutheran and Reformed congregations of the newly built "German Church". They shared the same churchbook until 1784 when the Lutherans started their own book; the Reformed congregation kept the original book. A new church was built in 1798 and in 1800 the congregations incorporated as Zion Church. The town of Manchester grew up around the church. The union agreement ended in 1863-1864 with both congregations dedicating new churches: Immanuel Lutheran and Trinity Reformed. .

Book Description
Grace Reformed Church was organized on March 6, 1898 with forty-six charter members. In 1901 the congregation purchased the current location, the cornerstone was laid in 1902, and the first service was held in October 1903. Financially, the church started with nothing but faith in God and a few loyal members. Since 1902, Grace Reformed Church has been entirely self-supporting. A brief history of Grace Reformed United Church of Christ, a list of ministers (1898-2010), a list of organists, and a list of choir directors precede the records. Records are grouped by Members, Baptisms, Marriages, and Deaths. Member entries include full name, date and how the person was received into membership. Baptism entries include the date of baptism, the full name of the child, names of parents (as available), and the date of birth. Marriage entries include the date of marriage, the full name of the groom, and the full name of the bride. Entries are listed chronologically. Death entries include the full name of the deceased, age, the date of death, and the place of burial (as available). A full-name index adds to the value of this work.
