I've collected a large number of civil war period diaries and dance "balls" were the big social event that is mentioned many times in them. I would suspect it is a Club for that purpose. Certainly Newark was near where the game was begining to take hold at the time and at times it was just referred to as playing a game of ball but I don't think I've ever seen it referred as a "Club" without the term "Base Ball" in front of it. |
