1. d4 {... etc. "Members and visitors to the Congress re­gretted to hear on
Saturday that Blackburne was indisposed, and would not be able to leave his
hotel. However it was arranged that his game with Mackenzie should be played
in private, and the veteran hopes to be able to take his place again in the
chessroom to-day. The game (queen’s pawn opening) soon resolved itself into
an ending with rook, knight, and four pawns against rook, bishop, and four
pawns, and a draw was the natural result." (Manchester Guardian, 21 August

ending, the only redeeming point in it. Legitimately it should have been a
draw, but Bellingham showed great skill in finding a possibility of winning in
a position which seemed perfectly even. The forces were R, N and 5Ps against
Shoosmith's R, B and 5Ps. But Bellingham, after forcing the exchange of rooks,
was able to win by bringing his K into better play, coupled with the
superiority of the N against the B." (The Field, 26 Aug 1905)} 1-0

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 {...etc. Not quite clear whether a draw was agreed
in this game. According to the Manchester Guardian, 26 Aug 1905, "the game
between the two last was left unfinished". The newspaper then gives the
players' scores as Gunston 2.5 and Shoosmith 2 (i.e. no score to either of
them). "The most determined fight of the day to avoid the draw took place
between Gunston and Shoosmith. After twenty-five moves not a single piece was
off the board. After another twenty moves one pawn had been exchanged, and the
doughty combatants were at a late hour in solo possession of the room, every
other game having been finished." However, The Field, 2 Sept 1905, shows the
result as a draw, with players' scores as Gunston 3, Shoosmith 2½.} 1/2-1/2
