October 18, 1870
THE NEW YORK TIMES, Oct. 18, 1870 Pg. 2 has: "Base-Ball" "Athletic vs. Atlantic--A Quick in Brooklyn--The Atlantics Again Defeated". The summary mentions a drop of 75% in the attendance due to the many losses by the Atlantics, plus word that "...many of them left in disgust at the fielding of the ex-champions before the game was over..." Includes the box score as well. First leaf has a minor archival mend close to the spine, otherwise nice condition in this 8 page issue.
