Excerpt from The Westminster Papers, 1875, Vol. 7: A Monthly Journal of Chess, Whist, Games of Skill and the Drama The match by correspondence between the City of London Chess Club and the Vienna Chess Club terminated, as announced last month, in the resignation of one of the games by Vienna, accompanied by a proposal to treat the other as drawn, and, the offer being practically a resignation of the match, it was accepted by the City Club. The games, which, throughout the later stages of the contest, have been conducted in behalf of London solely by Mr. Potter and Mr. Steinitz, having appeared in almost every Chess publication, either by instalments or at length, are now somewhat stale, so we have not deemed it necessary to reproduce them in the westminster papers, but we join with the players themselves in pronouncing the one we have played over to be the most interesting correspondence game we have ever seen.
