| Reichhelm gives +1-1 at Knight odds, while Lawson and Sarah's Morphy website say Morphy won all his Knight odds games against Lewis and Tilghman. Sarah's Morphy website gives the date as two days after Morphy's losses to Thomas at Knight odds, but Lawson gives 2 Nov. 1859, the day after the games with Thomas. |
