Event table notes

Event data
Name: Whist Club - Mechanics Institute Match
Place: San Francisco, California
Start date: 23 Mar. 1895
End date: Apr. 1895
 
Notes:
This was meant to be a Scheveningen-style match between the two clubs, with each player of one club playing two games against each player of the other. The games listed here were the only ones reported, and then the match was abandoned. The 20 Apr. 1895 issue of the San Francisco Chronicle (p.9) mentions a win by Thompson over Redding, but it is not clear whether that was part of the team match or not.
