Notes: |
Bell's Life in London (1 Jan. 1842, p.2) gives 7-1 for de Saint-Amant; Le Palamède (15 Jan. 1843, p.15) gives 11-1 for de Saint-Amant. Le Palamède says that the 12 games were played in three sittings of 4 games each, Schulten's only win being in the 8th game. So the result given by Bell's Life is presumably a partial result after the first 2 sittings. In fact, the 19 Feb. 1843 issue of Bell's Life in London (p.4) confirms the 11-1 result. |
