The CurateA player is chosen to represent "The Curate." The other players are
assigned such names as printer, plumber, jeweler, butcher, druggist,
shoemaker, etc. "The Curate" starts the game by saying,
"Mr. Butcher (or any other name) I called to see you this morning but
you were not at home."
The Butcher: "I had just gone over to the jeweler's."
Curate: "And what business had you at the jeweler's?"
(The jeweler is the next to speak but he must not do so until the
question is answered.)
"I went to get a bracelet for Mrs. Butcher."
The Jeweler: "I was not at home for I had gone to the printer's."
The Curate: "And what was your business at the printer's?"
(The printer is the next to speak but he must not do so until the
question is answered.)
The game may be made very interesting by bringing into it little
personal references and bits of innocent scandal, as
"I was at the jeweler's to help Mr. ---- select a ring for Miss ----."
