Event data |
Name: Westminster - Bristol Telegraph Match |
Place: London, England and Bristol |
Start date: 4 Dec. 1868 |
End date: 4 Dec. 1868 |
|
Notes: |
This was an 8-a-side match, but according to Löwenthal and Medley, the games Skipworth-Fedden, Hewitt-Franklin (W.), and Lamb-Burt were unfinished. The Bristol Mercury of 5 Dec. 1868 (p.8) says that only Hewitt-W. Franklin and Lamb-Burt were unfinished and says that Skipworth drew with Fedden. Sergeant gives the result as 4-1 for Westminster in games that were finished. |
