Miss Rebecca shown here with her new hat that was
presented to her by Abraham Lincoln on behalf of the 4th Michigan. For
fund raising that put her in a very special class. Seems she helped
raise lots of much needed money for this special unit. Of course the
President had to present her with a special t-shirt with the web address
and a picture of this web site. |

The Game of Rounders showed up sometime in the Mid 1800's. It was a gentlemens Game. Abraham Lincoln loved to play and did as often as he could. When they came to tell "Abe" he had been nominated for the office of President he was playing Rounders. Although he knew why they had come, he made them wait untill the game was over, to tell him | Ladies of the players |

This was a real good day for the Great Black Swamp Frogs. At left you see one of the Muffins Talley one of the few times they would score. The Frogs are from Sylvania, Ohio and the Muffins are from Columbus, Ohio and play out of the Ohio Historical Society. Many times when they play the Muffins would be the winner. On this day it would be the Frogs, maybe because the 16th President struck for them, that would be the winner. | |
