Event table notes

Event data
Name: Philadelphia - Manhattan Club Match
Place: Philadelphia and New York
Start date: 7 Nov. 1883
End date: 24 Nov. 1883
 
Notes:
The identity of the 'L. Cohn' on the Manhattan club team is not certain. I have assumed it to be Louis Cohn, but there was also around this time an 'L.D. Cohn'. In Jan. 1882, L.D. Cohn was elected vice-president of the Manhattan club, while Louis Cohn was elected recording secretary (Brooklyn Chess Chronicle, 15 Jan. 1883, p.70). The first round of the match was played in New York on Nov. 7, and the 2nd round was played in Philadelphia on Nov. 24.
