Default thank you and answer to chadwick correction

Thank you all for the welcomes and the pm. I love the Ward, max and it is technically 19th century, at least to me. Since no one refered to or commented on the chadwick error reference, i will give the answer in case anyone was curious. In the diagram on pg 47 of Chadwick's 1868 Game of Baseball book, 1st and 3rd bases are reversed. this is clearly a typo based upon point of reference, but was not caught,(until chadwick corrected errors, possibly for another printing which never occurred) and i think it is especially interesting in light of the date and importance of the book.
