| Notes: |
| Yanofsky has 'R. Macleod' in this event; Gaige has 'MacLeod'; Di Felice has 'MacLeod, Nicholas Menelaus'; Cohen has 'Nicholas MacLeod'. Yanofsky gives only the top 3 total scores but says that there was a triple tie for the other 3 places; Gaige and Di Felice give a crosstable giving Barry 2 points, Champion and Sanderson a half point each. Gaige calls this the 15th Canadian Championship; Di Felice calls it the 14th, but does not count the first unfinished event in 1872. |
