End date: Mar. 1874
 
Notes:
This is a soft result. We are told that Delannoy won only the first of several games against Bird, who gave him Knight odds, but Bird afterwards regained the advantage. The number of games is not stated, only that there were several ('plusieurs'). I use a soft result of 2-1 for Bird.
