Event table notes

Event data
Name: 6th Franklin Chess Club Championship
Place: Philadelphia
Start date: Nov. 1890
End date: 1891
 
Notes:
Hilbert's book on Shipley cites a report on first round games from the 16 Nov. 1890 Philadelphia Times, so I guess that the event started in Nov. 1890. The only game given there is dated Nov. 1890, and no indication is given of the end date, though being a knock-out event, it was probably shorter in duration than previous Franklin Club Championships.
