Event data
Place: Paris
Start date: 1816
End date: 1816
 
Notes:
We only have the statement that Wilson won many games against de la Bourdonnais giving odds of the Knight. I record this as a soft result of 1-0 for Wilson. Walker gives the year as 1816 in La Palamède in 1842, but gives the year as 1815 in the Chess Player's Chronicle in 1843.
