    altar .It is a nice game to be catching birds with a bird-basket, boys play that game.I do not know about anyone boating in a tub,but I heard of a man who crossed to America from Ireland in a tub. Duck was a great game long ago.They used to build a little castle of stones put a stone called a "duck".on top of it and throw a stone at it .if you knock it off you have the game won.
