In the frontispiece of Strutt's _Sports and Pastimes_ an engraving of a _Table_ occurs. Sir William Compton, by his will dated in 1523, bequeathed to Henry "a little chest of ivory, wherof one lock is gilt, with a chess-board under the same, and a pair of _tables_ upon it, and all such jewels and treasures as are inclosed therein." _Testamenta Vetusta_, p. 593. Tables are thus spoken of in a _Knight's Instructions to his Daughters_, originally written in French, in April 1371, and translated about the reign of Henry VI. "Ther was a gentille knight's daughter that wratthed atte the _Tables_ with a gentill man that was riotous and comberous and hadd an evelle hede, and the debate was on a point that he plaide that she saide it was wronge, and so the wordes and the debate rose so, that she saide that he was a lewde fole and thanne lost the game in chiding." _Harleian_ MSS. 1764, f. 7^{b} Table of wood, for a, 199.
