THE return game with the New Bedfords was played in Fall River on Tuesday, April 16, and resulted in Harvard's first defeat. Our Nine played a nearly perfect fielding game, but were unable to master Bradley's new delivery, his previous defeat teaching him that his old delivery was not the right kind to oppose to Harvard's batsmen. The game was well contested through eight innings; in the ninth two earned runs were made by the New Bedfords. The injury which Ernst received in the Live Oak game rendered him very lame, and had a natural effect on his pitching. Fessenden batted well. Thayer, Latham, Nunn, and Holden excelled in the field, as did Mutrie for the New Bedfords.
