| Event data |
| Name: Westminster Club - City of London Club Match |
| Place: London, England |

| End date: 26 July 1870 |

| Notes: |
| The Illustrated London News gives the result of Murphy-Frankenstein as +0-1=0 and the result of Wisker-Lord as +1-1=1, whereas the Westminster Papers, the Era, and Forster give Murphy-Frankenstein as +0-1=1 and Wisker-Lord as +1-1=0. I will accept the latter scores. |
