Significant History toward the Cultural Edification of the Sport ofGolf

[matthew wickline]

    He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram in
    the Battle of the Green Fields, and knocked their
    king Golfimbul's head clean off with a wooden club.
    It sailed a hundred yards through the air and went
    down a rabbit-hole, and in this way the battle was
    won and the game of Golf invented at the same moment.
