Judge Meek against Morphy, Mobile 1855 — a Scotch Gambit in which White's 12. P. to K. B's 3rd brings on immediate trouble and Morphy (Black) wins with a fine conception. Notes by Löwenthal.

1. 5.Ng5 This mode of proceeding with the attack is comparatively obsolete, as, with correct play, the defence to it is perfectly satisfactory. P. to Q. B's 3rd is now generally played.
2. 5…Nh6 Kt. to K's 4th is not good, e.g.— 5. Kt. to K's 4th; 6. Kt. takes B's P., Kt. takes Kt.; 7. B. takes Kt. (ch.), K. takes B.; 8. Q. to R's 5th (ch.), P. to K. Kt's 3rd; 9. Q. takes B., and White's game is justly considered by Heydebrand to be better than that of his opponent.
3. 9…d6 P. to Q's 4th is the best move here, see 'Chess Player's Chronicle,' vol. ii., p. 219.
4. 10.Qb5 Correctly played.
5. 11.Qb3+ Castling would have been a better move.
6. 12.f3 A bad move, and the cause of immediate trouble; White should rather have sacrificed the Pawn and castled, for a time at least, escaping danger.
7. 12…Na5 Taking all possible advantage of his opponent's error.
8. 17.Nd2 If B. to Q's 2nd, Black plays 17. B. to K. B's 4th, and if 17. R. to K. R's sq., then 17. B. to K. R's 6th.
9. 18…c6 A fine conception. A diagram of the position is given.
10. 19.Qf1 The capture of the Knight would obviously have exposed White to a mate in three moves.
11. 19…Bh3 Admirably played.
12. 20.Qd1 There was no better move.
