- I play a lot of games every day, some of those are hare and dogs, this is played by leaving one or two boys off, and then leave other boys after them.
Jumping and racing, and boxing sometimes. Hide and go seek, rounders. Charging other boys and try to beat them off.
I also play hurling and football, soccer, rugby and table tennis, with a child's set.
I also play draughts. This is is a very exciting game and it is played between two. This is played with twelve black and twelve white blocks of wood.
Bag O'Telle is another fine game.
Handball is also a good game.- Collector
