Where did the expression first dibs come from?

Dibs is short for dibstones, a children's game played with knucklebones, hence the knucklebones themselves, then counters generally and finally money placed down to reserve a place, for example in line to play at billiards. "First dibs" is the next in line, hence the claimant.
