NOTES. 



(a) This ia better thau P-Q3, but even now the K B Is shut in, and the 

 Q P rendered weak. 



(6) Correctly played, compeliug tiro advance of the K P, thereby 

 leaving the Q P behind, weak and unsupported. 



(c) P-Q R3 would have been sounder play, tut even ihen the game 

 would have been In favor of the fi-at player, 



(<0 Had Black now played P-Q Rs White's reply would sill have been 

 Kt-Q5, with wlmiiug game. 



(«) The attack is now Irresistible. 



if) If the B had been Interposed, White wonld have taken it cheeking 

 and on Kt retaking, have played Kt-QS eh, and won without difficulty. 



(3) Had the Q captured the B, White would have taken with the Kt 

 ch, and remained eventually with a P ahoad, and a winning position.
