When he later discovered that they were becoming so engrossed in the game that they had but little time to plant, sow or reap, or do any of the things incidental to farm life, he became very indignant indeed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
