Tally \Tal"ly\, n.; pl. Tallies. [OE. taile, taille, F. taille
a cutting, cut tally, fr. tailler to cut, but influenced
probably by taill['e], p. p. of tailler. See Tailor, and
cf. Tail a limitation, Taille, Tallage.]
1. Originally, a piece of wood on which notches or scores
were cut, as the marks of number; later, one of two books,
sheets of paper, etc., on which corresponding accounts
were kept.
[1913 Webster]

Note: In purshasing and selling, it was once customary for
traders to have two sticks, or one stick cleft into two
parts, and to mark with a score or notch, on each, the
number or quantity of goods delivered, -- the seller
keeping one stick, and the purchaser the other. Before
the use of writing, this, or something like it, was the
only method of keeping accounts; and tallies were
received as evidence in courts of justice. In the
English exchequer were tallies of loans, one part being
kept in the exchequer, the other being given to the
creditor in lieu of an obligation for money lent to
government.
[1913 Webster]

2. Hence, any account or score kept by notches or marks,
whether on wood or paper, or in a book; especially, one
kept in duplicate.
[1913 Webster]

3. One thing made to suit another; a match; a mate.
[1913 Webster]

or earn a tally in a game.

5. A tally shop. See Tally shop, below.
[1913 Webster]
