Every popular sport of the day were contested, in an Olympic style contest lasting one week. Hodge had been victorious at single-stick, back-sword, quarter-staff, cudgel-play wrestling and cock throwing, while Giles was successful in winning the archery, cricket-a-wicket, tilting at quintain (jousting targets), Turk’s head, stoolball and tipcat. Good Friday was the date chosen for the final and marbles chosen by the girl to be the deciding game, and Giles defeated Hodge.
