Notes:

1. Thornton and Moore's had a match scheduled on February 28. Unknown if it was played.
2. The Fall River Rovers played two games to open the season. The next week Moore's joined the league and played "newcomers Fall River St. Michael's".[3] The Rovers' loss and draw were included in St. Michael's official standings.
3. Fall River United joined the league but were named Fall River Americans when the season started.[4]
4. One loss likely missing from standings. Should probably be 15 GP, 3-9-3 WLD & .300 Pct.
