Calli: Here is a 1906 BCM article on G.S. Carr https://books.google.com/books?id=x... It mentions Jabez was indeed a Dr. and so I correct my comment from 2008.

Calli: After 23...c4. Alekine says "It is already the end. To 23...Nd5 White would have replied 24.Qf3 after which Black's position could not be held." Hmm, 24...Nf6 and then what? [DIAGRAM]
