    At the end of the Congress Paul Morphy agreed to play a match against Stanley at the Chess Club in New York, granting him a pawn and opening.
    Whoever won the first 7 games would have pocketed $ 200.
    Stanley left the match after it had been won 4 times out of 5 games and drawn only once. Then Morphy threw the same challenge to anyone else who wanted to try their hand at those conditions, but no one came forward. Chassgames and the youtube channel coincide
    Historical Chess Videos in the section dedicated to Paul Morphy gives it as the 3rd game, even if it is not known exactly which turn it is but it is probably the 3rd as you can see from the following articles: 'Evening Post, New York , Friday 4 December 1857 reported:
    "Chess. Since the close of the Chess Congress, Mr. Morpby and Mr. Stanley have been playing chess together, the former gave the latter the odds of a pawn and moves, the first winner of seven games was declared the winner. Now stands, tied 1, Morphy 3, Stanley 0. "
    The Louisville Kentucky Evening Bulletin of Monday, December 7, 1957 reported:
    "The chess contest between Paul Morphy and Chas. A. Stanley, in which the former gives the latter the odds of 'pawn and move', is proceeding in New York. The first winner of seven games must be declared the winner of pounds. On Thursday night, the games were Drawn 1, Morphy 3 and Stanley 0. "
    Game 3, Is the round score 3.4 or 5? - Original published in The Chess Monthly (TCM) 1858, page 147, Game CXII. No date or round was given. It was the only game of the match available until Lawson's second game was released in 1950. Sergeant gives it as Game 5, played on November 30th. However, the newspaper reports the score of 3-0-1 as of December 3. the match (final score 4-0-1) could not have ended before December 4th. I searched the other compilations (Lange, Lowenthal and Maroczy) and could not find a source for the sergeant's claim that the last game was played on November 30th or that it was the last game. Lawson, rather oddly I think, gets along well with Sergeant, stating that the match ended on November 30th, although this doesn't coincide with his first two match dates. This game could be Round 3, 4 or 5 like the match.

    Playing black and without the fpawn this is an invitation to slaughter but just look at his insouciance supreme confidence he let him take his E6 pawn and then captured the E5 pawn thus opening the e-file just brilliant

    Going in like a whirlwind, and conquering, vanquishing the kings of that world in a trice. Then vanishing. Leaving the world in a state of marvel and sadness at once.
