And Mr. Jordan won. Note*. (a) The old line, laid down by Drummond in the " Scottish Draughts-player." Present-day experts prefer 26—22. (b) —28 ha« long been held to be the best move here. In the Barker-Smith match at Spennymoor, in 1888, J. Smith played 29—25, and lost the game. He missed a narrow draw in the ending.
(a) This position may also be arrived at; from the Double Corner" opening, thus:—9— 22-18, 5-9, 26-22, 11-16, 21-9. (b) 28—24 is also sound. In the Priest-Dick match, at Philadelphia, in 1883, M. C. Priest played 30—26, and lost by 20—24, 27—20, 1116, 2011, 8—22, 25— 9—13, etc., G. Dick eventually winning.
