Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Games of the Match at Chess: Played by the Chess Players of the Athenæum, Philadelphia, and the New-York Chess-Club, Between the Years 1856 and 1857, With Variations and Remarks In the month of February, 1856, a proposal wag made, by the New York Cheis Club, to the amateurs who frequent the Athenæum in Philadelphia, to play a Match at Chess by correspondence. The proposal was accepted; and it was agreed, that the Match should consist of two games, to be played simultaneously, each party to have the White pieces and the move in one of the games. The Athenæum players fixed, by general consent, upon a committee for conducting the games, on their part. It was composed of the following gentlemen: Mr. P. Randolph, Mr. H. P. Montgomery, Mr. W. G. Thomas, Mr. L. Elkin, Mr. A. E. Dougherty, and Dr. S. Lewis. The first moves in the two games were exchanged on the 22nd of February. The second game, a Scotch Gambit, in which the Athenæum players had the White and the move, was the first concluded: it was resigned by the New York Committee on the 12th of January, 1867, at the thirty-second move. The First, or New York, Game, a Giuoco Siciliano, was continued until the 9th of February, when upon the receipt of the forty-first move of White Black announced checkmate in six moves. The second of these games will, perhaps, be regarded with some interest by Chess-students, as having again subjected to the severe test of correspondence-play the Italian defence of the Scotch Gambit.

Download or read book Benjamin Franklin and Chess in Early America written by Ralph K. Hagedorn and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Playing at Chess is the most ancient and the most universal game among men, for its original is beyond the memory of history." Benjamin Franklin penned these words as an introduction to his famous essay "The Morals of Chess." Franklin's approach to the game was in distinct contrast to his predecessors, who seriously advocated all the subtle treacheries of the art of poor sportsmanship with the sole end of attaining victory. To Franklin, however, the game of chess was not mere idle amusement but a sport reflective of life itself—"for life is a kind of chess, in which we have often points to gain and competitors or adversaries to contend with"—which requires the utilization of all the finest mental and moral qualities of which man is capable. This volume reproduces Franklin's celebrated essay and includes an analysis of everything Franklin ever had to say about chess. The second part of the book contains an extensive bibliography of chess in America to the year 1859. The two sections of the volume combine to form an essential sourcebook for the historian of American chess.
