  1. (continued from previous page)
    she said nothing. The three girls and their three husbands later met together at their father's house and one of the husbands jokingly said that he would lay a wager that his wife would answer his call promptly. The man who was married to the bold girl took up the wager with him. The call was given but the woman said, wait a few minutes I want to collect the cards. The other man then called his wife and she jumped up from the table and came to him, so he won the wager.
