As soon as the eldest hand has led, the dealer's partner shall place his
cards face upward on the table, and the duty of playing the cards from
that hand shall devolve upon the dealer, unassisted by his partner.
Before exposing his cards, the dealer's partner has all the rights of a
player, but after his cards have been shown the dealer's partner takes
no part whatever in the play, except that he has the right----
a To ask the dealer whether he has none of the suit in which he may
have renounced.
b To ask the dealer when called upon to play his highest or lowest
card whether he has conformed to the penalty.
c To call the dealer's attention to the fact that a trick has not
been completed.
d To correct the claim of either adversary to a penalty to which
the latter is not entitled.
e To call attention to the fact that a trick has been erroneously
taken by either side.
f To participate in the discussion of any disputed question of fact
which may arise between the dealer and either adversary.
g To correct an erroneous score.
* * * * *
Should the dealer's partner call attention to any other incident of the
play, in consequence of which any penalty might be exacted, the fact of
his so doing precludes the dealer exacting such penalty.
* * * * *
If the dealer's partner, by touching a card or otherwise, suggest the
play of a card from dummy, either of the adversaries may, but without
consultation, call upon the dealer to play or not to play the card
suggested.
* * * * *
Dummy is not liable to the penalty for a revoke; and if he should
revoke and the error be not discovered until the trick is turned and
quitted, the trick stands good.
* * * * *
A card from the dealer's hand is not played until actually quitted; but
should the dealer name or touch a card from the dummy hand, such card is
considered as played, unless the dealer in touching the card or cards
says, "I arrange," or words to that effect.
