, "Draughts" (cat. No. 154194, US National Museum)

 
The board consists of a small wooden table, 10 by 11 inches square, inscribed with a diagram as shown in figure 70. Mr. Webb states that the board is not necessary, the diagram being drawn upon the ground, a table, or the doorstep or floor of a house. The pieces, or men, twenty-four in number, twelve on aside, which are placed at the intersection of the lines as shown, consist of small sections of bamboo, half being colored red on both sides to distinguish them. The usual pieces are stones or colored tiles. The moves are the same as in ordinary draughts, except that a king has the power of passing over any number of squares in a straight line, taking all the men in its way. It cannot cross a square, however, nor can it return on another line until after the opponent has made another move. The game agrees in the king's move with the game of Polish draughts, and also with the game of draughts played in the Hawaiian Islands under the name of moo.2
