GAME BOARD.
Zfiasga UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN SMITH AND-EDWARD M. NUTTER, or FnLroNvILLE, MASS.
GAME-BOARD.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 47,867, dated May 23, 1865 antedated March 3, 1865, v
.To all whom it may concern:
.-Be it known that I, JOHN SMITH and ED- WARD M. NUTTER, of Feltonville, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Game:
Board for Playing what we Term the Battery. Game; and we do hereby declare the sameto be fully described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Fignre'l denotesa top view, and Fig. 2 a longitudinal section, of the said game-board. We construct the board circular inform,
with 'a trough,a,extending around it and near to itsperiphery. We do not, however, con-' fine our invention to this precise form, as the external form of the'board may vary'without effecting any material'change in our invention, which .consists in a peculiar combination and arrangement of cavities or their equivalents, a rotary gun, and a battery, or the resemblance of one.
In Fig. 1 of the drawings, A denotes a battery or the resemblance of one, having within it and formed in the board five semi-spherical cavities, b ed 1: f, arranged as shown in the said figure. There is also a rotary cannon,B, Y
, placed in or about inthe center of the redoubt or battery,'it-being. applied so as to be capable of being turned around and directed in the rangeof either of a series of lines marked 1,2, 3, 4,5,6, '7, 8,and9,allof which radiatefrom the pivot-of the cannon. Other semi-spherical cavities, g h'i-k zm nopq r s tu ik lm' 'n o p qW s t, are formed in the board andin the radial lines and with reference to one another and outside of the redoubt as shown in Fig. 1. Furthermore, there is a hole at 0 in the middle line 5, such hole being for the reception of a flag-stall! It is not material where the hole is made so long asit does not come within one of the semi-spherical cavities which are for'thepurpose of holding a series moves of the men. A move in an opposite.
tery inside of it and within .the cavities bc. d-
c f. Each man has to move outof .his position in the direction denoted by the'arrowhead leading therefrom. After every move of a man the cannon is to berotat ed one point-- that .is, from one of the directing-lines to the next one, and should there be but one man in the line of the cannon he is to be considered as destroyed, and by the cannoneer is to be removed from the board and put in the groove.
So long as there may be any two men in line of the cannon the attacking force is to remain on the board. Each man is to be worked toward and intothe cavity and from. thence into the cavity b, and from thence into-either of those markedc d e f.
Getting all the cavities in the battery filled causes the battery to capitulate.
We claim 'The gameboard as constructed, withthe rotarycannon, the battery, and the cavities, arranged substantially as described.
