The work of the former was so unsatisfactory at the first game that Captain King naturally protested against the same gentleman serving in the second game. Captain Frothingham accepted the protest at the time. Upon being asked for suggestions as to a new umpire Captain Frothingham replied that he had no suggestions to offer. Capt. King contrary to reports, did not assent to having Mr. Murray retained...
