On my 65 Mustang,
"A" directly to the battery, "B" to the starter, "I" to the ignition switch, ("I think"), I'm running an MSD box and dist............If I remember right when I wired it up 10+ years ago, the MSD box is "hot" when the ignition is on all the time, the "I" terminal engages the solenoid to send juice to the starter from the battery, which is controlled by the ignition switch only, again, "I think".............

Without an MSD using old factory type igintion systems, both small terminals are used, I believe the battery side would go to the + side of the coil....not totally sure, I'd have to look at another car to be positive, but, that's how I remember it....
