1896.
Last Professional Tournament. Bumstead Hall, Boston, April 13–17th.—Under auspices of Daly and Ives, 300–point games.
| W. | R. | Av. | G. A. | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ives | 3 | 85 | 5.88 | 5.29 |
| Schaefer | 2 | 39 | 5.36 | 4.91 |
| Daly | 1 | 29 | 4.62 | 4.35 |
| Garnier | 0 | 43 | 3.82 |
Approximate average of tournament, 4.67. Ives’s 85 was run against Daly. While it is absolutely the highest in public, yet it cannot properly be compared with Sexton’s 77 in virtually a $6,250 stake match (not counting side bets) that he won from Schaefer by no more than 4 per cent. in 600.
