The <Sheffield Daily Telegraph>, March 27th 1908, p.3:

<One of the most important events in the chess history of Sheffield took place last night, when Dr. Lasker, the champion of the world, paid a visit to the Sheffield Chess Club and gave an exhibition of simultaneous play. [...]

Last night he gave one of those remarkable exhibitions of chess played singly against a number of opponents, by which masters have long been accustomed to display their skill against amateurs. He met altogether 26 players, including most of the strongest members of the Sheffield Chess Club. It was a formidable team for any master to encounter, and gave Dr. Lasker as severe a task as any he has had to perform during his present successful tour in this country. But he emerged from the ordeal with triumph. He lost two games — one to Mr. E. Dale (the Yorkshire champion) and the other to Mr. L. Eppenheim. He drew with four opponents — Messrs. H. D. Rockett, F. E. Foster, C. A. Smith, and H. H. Bromham.

All the other 20 games were won by the champion, the losers being Messrs. A. E. Harrison, G. Breakwell, E. F. Gardner, J. E. Brown, J. D. Hendry, L. F. Miller, W. H. Sparkes. A. O. Boardman, G. H. Harrison, J. Orange, H. H. Holroyd, J. T. Dayson, W. Knowles, M. T. Miner, W. Driver, W. J. Dingley, G. H. Longdin, J. H. Hirst, F. H. Reynolds, and E. Lewis.
