- Children in all places and at all times have been fond of play - and games are different in most districts. Owing to the meagre accounts I have got of games I refrain from giving them in detail.
Amongst the number are: football (the county game) hurling (very little), jumping, running, Hide & seek, caps, Blind man's buff, gobs (or five stones), hunting cards, handball, &c. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
