Event table notes

Event data
Place: New York
Start date: 17 Dec. 1875
End date: 25 Dec. 1875
 
Notes:
Renette gives dates 17 Dec. 1875 to 'around 25 December'. The Toronto Globe of 25 Dec. 1875 says that 3 games between them were played while Alberoni was in Buffalo, but Renette suggests that all were played in New York. Feenstra Kuiper and Di Felice give the location of the series as Philadelphia, but this is clearly an error.
