Notes:
The report in the Illustrated London News (6 June 1869, p.603), the Era of 13 Jun. 1869 (p.7), and also in the Chess Players' Quarterly Chronicle of Aug. 1869 (vol.1, p.247), only says who defeated who, but this must have been for a single game per pair, since it all took place in one day. No draws are mentioned. There was a second tournament but only the first two place winners are mentioned, without scores.
