Mar-21-02  knight: The spectacular looking 22.Rxe6 is actually not so strong as 22...Ra6 was an excellent defense,Black would have responded to 23.Rxa6 with 23...Qxb2,but White should have tried that anyway, 23.Re8+ was a definite mistake.Hannah probably meant to defend himself with 25.Re3 noticing too late that this was impossible because of 25...Qe1+ with mate next move.
Oct-08-06  sneaky pete: Barnes missed both the Monday puzzle (36... Qe5+) and the Tuesday puzzle (37... Rh1+).

  MissScarlett: Not known why the score stopped here after <45...Rxa3>, but I've added the remaining moves per the tournament book.
Mar-01-21  sneaky pete: Suhle ends his version of the score with 45... Rxa3 "und Schwarz gewann". Maybe a matter of delicacy.

He only gives the same 85 games from the main tournament one can find in the Löwenthal book, and 17 games from the 1861 Bristol Congress, as well as problems from the London event.
