DESCRIPTION OF THE CHESS-BOARD AND MEN.
The game of Chess is played by two persons, each having at command a
little army of sixteen men, upon a board divided into sixty-four
squares. The squares are usually colored white and black, or red and
white, alternately; and custom has made it an indispensable regulation,
that the board shall be so placed that each player has a white square at
his right-hand corner.
