Cowpens Battleground, June 5. There has been an excessive amount of rainfall through this part of the county during the last week causing it to be impossible to work on the farm. As a result the boys of this community and of the Butlers community formed themselves into wet weather baseba.i leagues and challenged each other to a battle royal on Decoration day, May 30.

The game was played on the ball park at Butlers schoolhouse. Although they did not play with the technique of the big league teams they proved that baseball is the national pastime by giving each other an afternoon of interesting playing. At the close of the game the score stood 12 and 15 in favor of the boys from the Battleground. The full nine innings were played in spite of the fact that some of the heavy sluggers knocked the covers oft of the balls during the eighth inning. Clyde Jolly tossed the ball for the Battleground and John Toney for Butlers.

Otto Williams, the one-armed third baseman did excellent work at his position by catching all the balls that came his way, and it is reported that one of the fielders actually caught a ball on the fly. The nPxt game will probably be played after the next shower of rain for there is no time for amusement in the country at this time only as it is snatched during wet weather.
