Notes: |
This was an 8-a-side team match, but only two games were completed by the end of the evening. The other games were not adjudicated. An attempt to assess them after the fact was made by the Dublin club, but the results were not accepted by Löwenthal in the Era of 24 Dec. 1865 (p.4) or in the Chess Player's Magazine of Mar. 1866 (pp.67-68). |
