Ducksheen: A stick was put standing in the ground. The boys stood a good distance away from it and tried to get their sticks as near as they could to it. Whatever boy owned the stick farthest away from the standing one had to put his stick standing with his cap on the top of it and allow the others to try to knock his cap off the stick. Flogging tops, and pegging tops were very common some years ago but they are not seen with the boys for some years past. The only games played by boys are skittles and a game called Cat. The latter game is played somewhat like cricket with the exception that a small ring is made on the ground and used instead of stumps. A small piece of stick is used instead of a ball. The boys use a long piece of a stick for striking the smaller one. The girls play games like Hide and Seek, Hop-scotch and Jackstones.
