Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
130
It
is
obvious
that
the
two
packets
now
collectively
contain
duplicates
of
three
cards,
while
three
others
are
missing;
but
it
is
extremely
unlikely
that
any
one
will
suspect
this,
or
seek
to
verify
the
constitution
of
the
pack.
TO
ALLOW
SEVERAL
PERSONS
EACH
TO
DRAW
A
CARD,
AND
THE
PACK
HAVING
BEEN
SHUFFLED,
TO
MAKE
ANOTHER
CARD
DRAWN
HAPHAZARD
CHANGE
SUCCESSIVELY
INTO
EACH
OF
THOSE
FIRST
CHOSEN.--Invite
a
person
to
draw
a
card.
This
first
card
need
not
be
forced,
as
it
is
not
essential
for
you
to
know
what
card
it
is,
so
long
as
you
afterward
keep
it
in
sight.
When
the
card
is
returned
to
the
pack,
insert
the
little
finger
under
it,
and
make
the
pass
in
order
to
bring
it
to
the
bottom.
Make
the
first
of
the
false
shuffles
(see
page
23),
and
leave
it
at
the
bottom.
Again
make
the
pass
to
bring
it
to
the
middle
of
the
pack,
and
force
the
same
card
on
a
second
and
again
on
a
third
person,
each
time
making
a
false
shuffle,
and
leaving
the
chosen
card,
which
we
will
call
a,
ultimately
in
the
hands
of
the
last
person
who
drew.[E]
When
you
have
concluded
the
last
shuffle,
which
(the
card
not
now
being
in
the
pack)
may
be
a
genuine
one,
you
offer
the
pack
to
some
person
who
has
not
yet
drawn,
and
allow
him
to
draw
any
card
he
pleases,
which
second
card
we
will
call
b.
You
open
the
pack,
and
ask
the
persons
holding
the
two
cards
to
replace
them
one
on
the
other;
that
first
chosen,
a,
being
placed
last--i.e.,
uppermost.
