Whist.

Whist undoubtedly Is derived from
the old game of trumps, which has a
purely English lineage. There is no
record of the origin of this game nor
of Its development into ruff and hon.
ors, which was the parent of whist.
The earliest reference to 1t is believed
to be In a sermon Of Latiiner about
the year 1929, The name probably is
derived from the "hlst" or "silence"
which close attention to play demands
of the players.
