Round Table
The round table was made by my grandfather, Joseph Cardinal (1830-1913), and came to my father after Grandpa's death.
As I remember it, the table was a dark color. It was later painted black, and then, still later, gray.
My son, Peter, now has the table.

Game Board
This game board measures about 29″ square with mesh pockets at the four corners. It was patented by The Carrom Company, Ludington, Michigan. This is Style E, No. 1 Archarena. It is designed to play
Carroms
(registered) and checkers on one side and croquinol on the reverse side, as well as many other games. It came with an instruction book (now lost) covering 57 games (I think). Playing pieces are wooden rings in red, green, and clear, black. There are also two wooden cues 26″ long.The game set was bought in 1918 or 1919 by my father, Gilbert Cardinal, while we lived at Oneida. He particularly enjoyed playing
Carroms
with my mother and me.A few of the rings have broken.
