Hi!

I have a feeling there was, but right now the only thing which comes to mind was that some of the men in H Company referred to themselves as Benteen`s Base Ball Club (today we`d spell it Baseball, but seems like it was two words back then).

Not familiar with how libraries in the SU function, but I`d recon this means it`s stored away somewhere? www.loc.gov/item/18014450/ Or am I misunderstanding something? Would have been fantastic to see in real life.
