This he spurned with his toe as he ran on, unable to check his furious impetus, until he fell in the arms of the other Charleston players on the bench. And then the Charleston faction in the crowd raised crawled in at the back door and been ousted unceremoniously! The Kingstonians had certainly played a beautiful game, but the Charlestonians had played one quite as good.
The athletic association from a neighboring school, known as the Brownsville School for Boys, had sent the Kingstonians an offer to bring along a team of cross-country runners to scour the regions around Kingston in competition with any team Kingston would put forth.
