Believe it or not, this clipping probably has a DEVIL MAKE A THIRD connection. Fred Lane married Buck's sister, Vera Baker. Fred Lane would have been 20 years old in 1911 when this clipping was printed which would be the prime age for a Dothan baseball player. In Chapter 19 of DEVIL MAKE A THIRD, Buck says,""Papa said there ain't but three things worth fightin' over- a land line, a baseball game, or a woman. They'll cool off. Preacher's got to say somethin' an' it can't all be good. One thing sure-they wouldn't be shootin' at me if I didn't have my head up so it could be seen. I'll worry when they stop shootin'." (looks like Memory Hill did a land office business exhuming bodies in the Fifties so the Baker bunch could all be together. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/26011146/fred-mathew-lane )
