Note 9 — Chapter XXIV · ARTS AND AMUSEMENTS

Another game resembling tip-cat is called eln, and at some villages there is a special stone where the game is played. A piece of wood pointed at both ends is propped against the stone and struck with a stick, and should be caught by someone at a distance. The name for this game is probably Badaga,9 and this suggests that the game has been borrowed from this people.
