Notes:
  1. ^ a b 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.
