Excerpt from Hobbinol, Field Sports, and the Bowling Green The poets of almost all nations have celebrated the games of their several countries. Homer began, and all the mimick tribe followed the example of that great father of poetry. Even our own Milton, who laid his scene beyond the limits of this sublunary world, has found room for descriptions of this sort, and has per formed it in a more sublime manner than any who went before him. His, indeed, are sports but they are the sports of angels; This gentleman has endeavoured to do justice to his countrymen, the British freeholders, who, When dressed in their holiday clothes, are by no means persons of a despicable figure but eat-and drinkas plentifully, and fight as heartily, as the greatest hero in the Iliad. There is also some use in descriptions of this nature, since nothing gives us a clearer idea of the genius of a nation, than their sports and diversions. If we see ipeople dancing even in wooden shoes, and a fiddle always at their heels, we are soon convinced of the levity and volatile spirit of those merry slaves. The famous bull-feasts are an evident token of the quixotism and romantick taste of the Spaniards and a country-wake is too sad an image of the infirmities of our own people. We see nothing but broken hea'ds, bottles flying about, tables overturned, out rageous drunkenness, and eternal squabble.

Excerpt from How to Bowl Bowling seems to have originated early in the Middle Ages. It was at that time a purely outdoor game, as was the rule with everything of that period. The sport was known by a variety of names. It was called "bowles," French "boules" and "careau." These three names seem to have been the most common, but there are others, quite a number purely local. As played at that time, the game was very different from the present sport, but there was much similarity. The game was played with sides or teams, as to-day. The balls, or bowles, were made of stone, one half spherical, the other half oval shaped. This gave the ball a curve, which appears to have been desirable as it sped down the bowling green. At each end was placed a cone, which was the mark for the howlers. The cones were bowled from one end of the rink and then from the other. As in the game of quoits, or "horseshoes," the object of the game was for one side to place their ball nearer the cone than their adversaries. The side bowling last would, of course, try to knock the opponents' ball away from the cone, supplanting it with their own, the one nearest the cone scoring a point for his side. Skill was required to bowl in such a way as to curve around an opponent's bowl so as to get nearer the cone, without knocking the other hall closer. Later, the stone bowl was supplanted by one made of lignum vitae. The latter was made perfectly spherical. The outside of the tree being lighter than the heart naturally gave the hall the desired bias, though often one side of the ball was loaded with lead to obtain the desired effect. The cones were finally done away with, and superseded by a stone or earthen ball about three and a half inches in diameter and known as a "jack." Instead of having a stationary mark at which to bowl, the jack was knocked all over the green, while strategy and skill were required to play a good game.

Excerpt from The Greatest Street in the World: The Story of Broadway, Old and New, From the Bowling Green to Albany I think I am right in calling it the greatest street in the world. There are famous streets in the other great cities of the world, but none that Shows such wealth for SO great a distance. It is said that when the famous Field Marshal Blucher rode in triumphal procession through the streets of London after the battle of Waterloo he gazed about him in astonishment, and, true to his upbringing as a soldier of Frederick the Great and the military canons Of the time, exclaimed: Gott in Himmel! Vot a magnificent city to sack! If we could suppose the doughty Old warrior transported to New York and driven over her great thoroughfare, we can readily believe that words would fail him.
