Dice, he points; out, were the first gambling dJe- vice used by human beings. The game frequently crops ap, in history. King James I of Scot- land played it the night before he was assassinated. The manner of play had nothing to do with his death, however. And there is a colorful story about the Duke of Albany and his tregic backgammon game in 1479. The Duke, challenged to & game, banteringly, by a prisoner awaiting | execution, consented to play. The game went on far into the night,! No one know just how it hap- pened, but the next morning the attendants found the dapper Duke slumped over the table, dead, the hilt of a knifs between his ribs.
