Catlin's Historic Origin of the Playing Cards / Their original design and subsequent use - H. D. Catlin

The three games may all alike be made "progressive," and conform to modern custom, under the three popular names of—

"Drive Whist."

"Progressive Euchre."

"Honored Guest."

The merit due to the game of "Guest" is its practicability, simplicity and perfect harmony, overcoming the two objectionable extremes, alike peculiar to the two games of "Whist" and "Euchre." The strength of this present game is in the close attention and watchful observance of the players, remembering the cards as played and to be played, which may be known alike to each of the four players by a studied application to the play of the game.
