Excerpt from The Evolution of Whist: A Study of the Progressive Changes Which the Game Has Passed Through From Its Origin to the Present Time It is impossible to write on historical mat ters Without copious references, and I have to make many grateful acknowledgments of help in this direction.

Messrs. De la Rue, also, have been good enough to give me free permission to make extracts from the excellent works published by them.
