Billiards

Billiards in a dream — angles, careful aim, balls colliding — can carry the old books' note of coming friction: disputes over property, slander at work. The dream tends to touch contests of position and calculation, and to ask where our affairs have become a game of careful angles, and who is playing against us.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for billiards, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
