Event table notes
|
| Event data |
| Name: City of London Club Knight Class - Athenaeum Club Match |
| Place: London, England |
| Start date: 7 Apr. 1876 |
| End date: 7 Apr. 1876 |
| |
| Notes: |
| The identities of some of the players is not clear. The Westminster Papers of 1 May 1876 (p.2) has 'Mr. Smith' and 'Mr. T. Smith' playing for the Athenaeum. The latter is clearly Thomas Smith, and I am guessing that the former is Dr. Gordon Smith, who played for the Athenaeum in the return match (several players who were doctors are referred to here as 'Mr.', so the fact that the title 'Dr.' is not used is not conclusive). On the City of London Knight Class team was 'Mr. G. Smith'. While Dr. Gordon Smith was also a member of the City of London Club, and in the Knight class, he could not have played for both teams, so I am guessing that this was George Smith, who played the previous year on the Rook class team of the City of London Club. Another possibility might be that Dr. Gordon Smith played for the City of London, and the 'Mr. Smith' of the Athenaeum was yet another Smith. |
