NEW YORK (#).—If Edmond Hoyle, father of the literature of eard rules, could revisit the world he would come to the conclusion that he had started something. Some two centuries ago he decided to put his knowledge of whist into writing and he produced a modest vol- ume of 86 pages, containing all there was - to tell of the rules of the game “whereby a beginner may, with due attention to them, attain to the playing it well.” Hoyle did not know that whist, in time, would give way to bridge, to be followed by auction bridge and the con- tract bridge of today, each to be inter- preted by more books than Hoyle's first volume had pages. Copy Finds Way to U. S, All of which is introduction to the fact that a copy of Hoyle's first card book, the “editio princeps” of the litera- ture of card playing, has found its way to this country from England. So far as known there is only one other copy in existence, in the Bodle- ian Library at Oxford. Hoyle, the weight of whose authority s indicated by the fact that the phrase “according to Hoyle” is a proverb, was born in 1672. His early life is lost in the mists of history, and it is not until 1741 that he emerges as a teacher of whist in Queen Square, London. Laws Gradually Superseded. He compiled a handbook on whist playing which ecirculated among his students and which finally developed into His famous “Short Treatise on the ‘Game of Whist,” published in 1742. Hoyle continued to be regarded as authoriative until 1864, after which his 1aws gradually were superseded by new rules adopted by Anington and Port- land clubs in that year.
