Event table notes

Event data

Notes:
According to Cornil, van Driessche withdrew after playing and losing 5 games, against Dunkelblum, Baert, Sapira, Soultanbeieff, and Haché. Verhulst's Belgian Chess History website indicated only 3 games played (and lost) by van Driessche, those against Dunkelblum, Baert, and Soultanbeieff. I adopt the version given by Cornil.
