Event table notes

Event data
Place: Clifton
Start date: 1875
End date: June 1875
 
Notes:
A 'friendly match' according to the Illustrated London News of 3 July 1875. Given the date of this report, which says the match had 'just concluded', I presume it finished in June 1875. Note that the Aug. 1874 issue of the Chess Player's Chronicle (p.120) says that a match was underway between these two players then, at Clifton.
