Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Decline and Fall of Whist: An Old Fashioned View of New Fangled Play As it has been taken for granted, because no abhorrence of the recent proceedings of the New Academy has been openly expressed, such feeling is non-existent, this opuscule has been written in the confident belief that it expresses the opinions of a majority of civilized Whist-players.

Excerpt from book: SOME PILLARS OF THE EDIFICE. PILLAR NO. I.?THE PHILOSOPHY OF WHIST. In case the ipse dixit of Cavendish in The Field, or the preface, should fail to convince, we have also had the sacred name of Philosophy dragged in to countenance these proceedings. Ever since there has been any record of philosophers, their schools appear to have been about as numerous as themselves. Plato for his own share had five different sets of followers. All the systems contradicted each other, and the disciples of each master usually held different views as to his tenets; as this has continued down to our own day, for the dogmatic philosopher who recently died in Chelsea spent more than half a century in contradicting himself, while two of the most prominent disciples of Conite are fighting tooth and nail at this very moment, when we hear of the philosophy of Whist, the enquiry naturally arises, which philosophy ? The Whist philosophy of Cam, propounded day by day, was, that there is no absolute never or always. The same idea runs through the entire treatise of Clay; and if there is one point more especially distinctive than another in the teaching of that great master, repeated again and again, and constantly insisted upon, it is that all the maxims of Whist are open to innumerable exceptions, that the coat must be cut according to the cloth, and that he is the finest Whist-player who can most readily grasp that fact. (Here I may remark, in a parenthesis, that though the late Mr. Clay eventually gave a qualified assent to the penultimate lead and the forced discard, it has yet to be shown that he assented to either the one or the other, in its present uncompro. raising and preposterous form, a form which is utterly repugnant to his every public utterance).
