on the following day and won by Mr Skipworth... The play was abruptly dealt
with the following day, when Mr Atkins had to leave Holbeck for some

2 March 1900, p2, which identifies Black as Edmund Wood, "... securing a
brilliant victory over the celebrated international, Mr. H. E. Atkins". On
page 5 of the same edition, there is further detail: "Mr Edmund Wood, of the
Essex Association, a young and comparatively little known player, beat no less
a person than Mr. H. E. Atkins, the amateur champion." I am grateful to Gerard
Killoran for unearthing the above references, and also for subsequent research
which seems to indicate that the player was Edmund John Wood, born abt 1876, s.
of Joseph Wood, marrying Anne Louisa Formby on 26 Dec 1903 at Waltham Holy
Cross, St Lawrence and Holy Cross, Essex, England. Gerard found another
reference to a game that Edmund Wood lost and then nothing more. I took up the
quest and found that Wood was a storeman for the Minister of Supply and lived
in Enfield with his wife and family at the time of the 1911 and 1939 censuses.
His d.o.b. appears to be 24 August 1876, acc. the 1939 census, but the entry
there introduces a doubt as to his first name - a census worker at some point
in the past has crossed out 'Edmund' and written instead 'Edward John'. He had
a son born 1908 also called Edmund J Wood.} 0-1

satisfied with his chances, and only wanted to get to his 40th move to vary,

The Field and the TLS end the game after White's 45th move. The Field leaves
out the moves from White's 38th move to Black's 39th move and thus omits the
repetition of moves. It ends the game after White's 43rd move (two moves on
each side having been cut out). It appears that neither side sought to claim a

Source: Stockport Advertiser, 9 January 1914. The game source doesn't give
Atkins' opponent's forename nor the date of the match. Gerard Killoran points
to a reference in the Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer for 1 December
1913 which reports a Woodhouse Cup match in which Atkins defeated S Jackson -
who could be Sidney Jackson. Less probable is that Black was Maxwell Jackson 
(both Jacksons are documented at the Yorkshire Chess History website)} 1-0

Gerard Killoran found another recent source - Huddersfield Daily Examiner,
Wednesday 04 December 1991 p.18 - which also seems to have drawn on the Coles
book. However, further research leads Gerard to believe it was played as part
of the Woodhouse Cup on 14.02.1914 (which was reported in the Huddersfield

game was (illegally, as it turned out) adjourned, Kostich sealing the move} 38.

his e-pawn. But Black has three threats, Qg5 (or Qg4), Ng4, and h4, and there
is no answer to them all. Both players were very short of time towards the end,
though Atkins's play hardly betrays the fact.   The replay ordered by the
committee... resulted in a draw after thirty moves of correct and conventional
chess. This made the score in the fifth round:–Britain, 3½; Yugoslavia, ½.
