Solitaire
This
is
a
game
for
one
person,
played
on
a
board
pierced
with
thirty-seven
holes,
in
each
one
of
which
is
placed
a
marble
or
peg.
The
art
or
motive
of
the
game
is
to
remove
one
marble
and
then
to
shift
the
rest
about,
so
as
to
bring
the
last
marble
to
the
hole
whence
the
first
was
removed.
One
marble
or
man
takes
any
other
over
which
it
can
leap
into
a
vacant
hole
beyond;
or
any
number
of
men
in
succession,
so
long
as
there
is
a
hole
into
which
it
can
go.
An
example
of
a
game
played
will
better
explain
the
method,
than
any
amount
of
verbal
instruction.
Remove
the
marble
from
the
centre
hole;
then
bring
the
marble
from
1
in
the
upper
limb
of
the
diagram,
to
the
centre,
jumping
over
and
taking
the
piece
between.
By
following
the
direction
of
the
figures,
it
will
be
found
that
the
last
place
arrived
at
will
be
the
centre
from
which
you
started.
With
practice
and
patience
the
Solitaire
player
will
be
able
to
start
from
and
return
to
any
hole
on
the
board.
