It was like Donald Dinnie at the Highland Games: when he has thrown the hammer or tossed the caber, the spectator hardly takes notice of the next competitor.
"Prince Fortunatus"
William Black
The Scotchmen ran races, and tossed the caber and walked the greasy pole across from the capsized dock to the Inverness.
"The End of the Rainbow"
Marian Keith
With no little exertion did he construct a staircase of which the steps were about the size of foot baths, and with no slight impatience did we watch his gymnastics and athletic flourishes, which were a sort of mixture of tossing the caber and throwing the hammer combined with a touch of polo.
"Above the Snow Line"
Clinton Thomas Dent
