Event table notes

Event data
Place: London, England
Start date: 1820
End date: 1820
 
Notes:
This is a soft result. Murray only says that Lewis was giving Cochrane odds of a Knight in 1820. This implies a certain relative strength, so I include a soft result of a single draw to indicate approximate equality at these odds, but without too much weight.
