Duanesburg students surprised with toy giveaway

DUANESBURG - Four days before Christmas, elementary school students came outside to find bags and boxes of toys.
There are toys for all of the roughly 300 students at Duanesburg Elementary to give some smiles in a tough year.
This is so exciting, said Principal Andrea Conover. In a school year that has been tremendously hard and difficult and nothing like the kids have ever experienced, this kind of brings a little excitement and joy back here.
The Schenectady County Sheriff s Department organized this surprise giveaway, working with the Marines Toys for Tots.
When the lieutenant reached out and said Hey, is there anything we can do to help these kids this year out of the school, we said absolutely, said SSgt. Patrick Lurenz, Coordinator of Capital Region Toys for Tots. ....

Tim Donahue, 30 years old and coming off an injury-riddled 1900 season, began 1901 in a public feud with team President Jim Hart over $200 (equivalent to $6,199.71 in 2020) that Donahue believed he was due.
He also was considering embarking on a new chapter of his life.
After a meeting on Jan. 7 in northern Minnesota with Ted Sullivan, organizer of a proposed new minor league, Donahue told the Chicago Tribune:
I am still connected with the Chicago team, but I do not propose to play baseball for a living all my life and if there is a good opportunity for me to become manager of an up-to-date team such as could be secured for Duluth I should feel inclined to embrace it. ....

Many players, upon leaving the Cubs or other Major League teams, have written letters to their teammates and fans, often paying significant amount for them to appear as full-page advertisements in newspapers.
More than 120 years ago, catcher Tim Donahue of the Orphans, as the Cubs then were known, wrote a farewell letter of a distinctly different kind, a letter that the Chicago Tribune printed in full, for free:
.
Former Comrades:
Ye called me knocker, and ye did well to call me such. Upon the West Side grounds I made you look like soiled deuces in a clean deck. ....

As noted in the previous post, of all the home runs hit by batters for the future Cubs from 1876-1900, an actual distance is cited in the Chicago Tribune for only 1: a blast by Fred Pfeffer at Detroit on Sept. 5, 1887:
The ball hit a fence nearly 600 feet from the plate, and hadn t begun to come home when Fritz crossed the plate.
.
In lieu of distances in feet, extraordinary home runs often were described in terms of where they landed.
[Mark] Baldwin s hit in the third was a long one, the Tribune said of a game against Boston on May 16, 1888. It went to within a few feet of the engine-house before it touched the ground. At that [right fielder Tom] Brown s speed and throwing ability enabled him to get the ball and send it back so as to give Baldy trouble in making third. Had [shortstop Sam] Wise handled the throw cleanly there would have been ....

This one is for
ernaga, loyal BCB reader and fellow lover of Cubs history, who posted this comment in response to my 2-part post about the Cubs bounced home runs:
In your extensive pre-1900 research, have you found contemporaneous accounts that draw frequent reference to home runs of exceptional distance as often as they apparently do to these bounce-ins?
....
The longest home run likely hit by any Cub in the 19th Century reportedly traveled a long, long way.
No, not the homer hit by Jimmy Ryan, at Boston, on July 11, 1899, that was described as clearing the left field fence, sailing into the window of a passing train and winding up in New York, a distance of 217 miles, or 1,145,760 feet. ....
