In appreciation for their delivering his mid day meal to him from the village above, this workman rewarded the children by taking a break from his work to teach them the ancient game of 9 Man Morris, a game that needs no more than a stick to draw the board in the soil, and 18 stones, 9 white and 9 black.

| Above is the 'board' for 9 Man Morris. |
The object of the game is to put 3 of your stones in a row, you may choose white stones or black, white goes first, on the intersection of the lines. Taking turns, the first person to get three stones in a row without being blocked by the opponent wins the game.
