Notes:
Holmgren and Tidskrift För Schack (May-Jun. 1915, p.110) give only the results of the top 6 out of 12 players. Svenska Dabladet of 8 May 1915 (p.9) has an almost complete crosstable with all 12 players, but with 3 of E. Granlund's games as yet unplayed, against A. Olson, O. Sundström, and B. Erikson, as well as Sundström's games against Sv. Olson and B. Erikson. The crosstable shows A. Olson with 6 points while Holmgren and Tidskrift För Schack show him with 7 points. The Svenska Dagbladet report with the partial crosstable says that only the play-off match between Englund and Nyholm remained to be played, so I will assume that Granlund's unplayed games were forfeited to his opponents, including A. Olson, which would give A. Olson the extra point in the official score, even though the crosstable simply leaves these games blank. The crosstable also indicates that Ahlgren forfeited to Nyholm, Malmgren, Jacobsen, Dahlberg, Sv. Olson, and Sundström. Ahlgren's game against Rask in shown as a forfeit in Ahlgren's row, but as a genuine win in Rask's row. I will guess that it was actually played. Also, Granlund forfeited to Dahlberg.
