  1. Poor Thady

    Share Share Post
    "Poor Thady" is another game we play. One girl is "Poor Thady" and she makes out she is sick. The other girls come to inquire how she is. They come a couple of times and in the end they find out that Thady is dead. They lift her on their shoulders and carry him to her grave and leave her down. Poor Thady opens her eyes and jumps up and the person he calls to be Poor Thady.
