    The games we play in Summer are blindman's buff, hide and go seek, a ghost in the well, playing Jackstones, playing cards, making dolls out of rags and round the mulburry tree.
    When we are playing blindman's buff one puts a cap on his eyes and follows the other's and the first he catches must be the blind man if he can name him.
