Event data
Place: London, England
Start date: May 1851
End date: May 1851
 
Notes:
Anderssen won a game against Perigal at the London Club shortly after Anderssen's arrival in London, along with Mayet, who beat Mongredien. Anderssen says that they repeated the visit the next day and both won again, so I will guess that this means that Anderssen beat Perigal again. Three wins by Anderssen over Perigal are given in the Schachzeitung (pp.173-174), so I will take the full result to be 3-0.
