Notes:
The Illustrated London News of 22 Oct. 1864 (p.427) gives a win by Mackenzie over Reichhelm and says it was 'lately played'. A win by Reichhelm over Mackenzie is given in the 18 Feb. 1865 issue (p.171) but while this may be the other 1864 game, it could be one of the 1865 games between these two players.
