| Notes: |
| According to Reitstein (p.25), Hodges only completed 5 games, so his other 7 were forfeited. There is no indication of which opponents he forfeited to. This will cause some error in his rating, but he scored 0 in any case. The error in the rating of the opponents to whom he forfeited will be slight. |
