| Name: London Club Handicap Tournament |
| Place: London, England |
| Start date: Jan. 1860 |
| End date: 25 May 1860 |

| Notes: |
| Only partial results available. This was a 13-player, single round, all-play-all event. The event was announced in the 28 Jan. 1860 issue of the Illustrated London News (p.91) and all the players listed, by section, with the odds detailed. Only a few games were published in the Illustrated London News and in the Era, but since only 1 game was played between pairs of players (exclusive of draws), I include the results of these pairings. The 13th player, not listed here, was Jones in Class 1, presumably the [Alfred] Jones who played Morphy in his simultaneous exhibition at the London Club in 1859. I am not sure whether the 'Harris' who played here was William Harris, who was for many years secretary of the Richmond Club, but who by 1858 was living in Wollaston, Northamptonshire (see the Era of 18 Apr. 1858), or E. Harris, who played in the Handicap event at the London Congress of 1862, or even some other Harris. I will guess that this was E. Harris. Walker in Bell's Life in London (15 Jan. 1860, p.5) says the tournament has started, and that there were 12 players. |
