This 1800 was really off his game.

Oct-29-07  likestofork: Not that I'm suspicious or anything, but my suspicion is that the move was 15...Qd8, and not 15...Qe8
Oct-29-07  sneaky pete: It was, see Von Der Lasa vs Staunton, 1853 which has the correct score as published by Staunton in The Chess Player's Chronicle.

Tassilo von der Lasa should have played
17. Rxf7!+-.
I think Paul Morphy would have played that in an instant.
