  1. I hurl and play "Hide and seek, Tig and racing. In November on Hallowe'en night apples are put in to a tub of water and children dive for them. That night too, children crack nuts and put them in the fire and make them fly. In the night time when the moon shines I play "Spy" with other boys. This is very good sport Half the boys go out and hide and the rest try to spy them out.
