I'm not proud.  I did an amazing long browse, using the images at the
Penn library's Furness collection:

PagePosition=1  No regrets.

Subject:        Hall's Chronicles

R. A. Cantrell asks who among us has read Hall's Chronicles from cover
to cover. I cannot say I have done that, but I have gleaned many hours
of enjoyment from his more famous books, "A Short Treatise on the Game
of Whist" and "Standard Games".

"When in doubt, win the trick".

Subject:        Re: Hall's Chronicle

R.A. Cantrell asks if "anyone on the list [can] claim to have read
Hall's Chronicle...cover to cover" because it is "[i]mportant statistic"
(at least to him).

May I ask why it's important statistic and what the result can tell us?

Best wishes,
Takashi Kozuka
