AMERICAN CHESS-NUTS INTRODUCTION

The most appropriate prelude to an opening of the Nuts, seems to be an account of how these leaves have grown and borne their fruit. In February, 1859, the writer received a very interesting anonymous letter, calculated to excite the desire of becoming better acquainted with its author. “I do not know,” said the unknown, “whether you are a collector of Chess Curiosities. I hope you are not. And yet, I inconsistently enclose title and specimen pages of a Chess book that was neither printed nor published, and of which the only copy is to be found in my Chess library (eighty volumes, with prospects of a speedy increase to one hundred and thirty—all modern works of practical value.) This work is intended to consist of a pretty complete collection of such problems as have appeared in newspapers, etc. It now contains about four thousand positions; but whether I shall have the patience to make any great addition to this number, I cannot undertake to say, although my notation is concise enough to enable me to copy in one evening sometimes as many as a hundred problems and their solutions.” The title page referred to was in print, and read: “Chess-Nuts; a Collection of Problems and End Games.” In the Correspondence of the Problem Department of the Chess Monthly was inserted a notice to “Cryptograph, New York,” in which he was told that the writer “would be delighted to see —— at his residence.” This led to a second missive, signed by the real name of the mysterious correspondent. A reply to this brought a third letter, in which an offer was made to loan the “Chess-Nuts.” In answer to a suggestion, the writer says:—“If I wonder whether a large collection of V

VI

AMERICAN CHESS-NUTS

problems would pay publishing expenses, E.B.C. must look upon himself as the causer of the wonder. Alexandre, issued a dozen years since, is not out of print—which isn’t encouraging. * * * * Why can’t some dollared Chess-man be amiable enough to look some possible loss in the face, and, in return, be looked in the face by some certain glory? Am I wrong in supposing that E. B. C. would like to be the Editor, in whole or in part, of such a work? I, for one, would willingly be the Greenwood Walker of the undertaking— doing, for the love of the thing, the machinery business, such as collecting, arranging for the press, correcting proofs,” etc. On the 14th of March the “Chess-Nuts” were placed in my hands by their interest-exciting owner. Each page contained six very neatly lithographed little diagrams. The pieces were noted in an original short hand; Queen, King, Bishop, Knight, Rook, and Pawn, respectively figuring as 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 0—White and Black being distinguished by inks of different color. During the course of the interview of the 14th, the feasibility of publishing a Collection of Problems by American Composers was discussed. The first suggestion of such a work was made, I believe, by Mr. D. W. Fiske, in the Saturday Press of December 11th, 1858. According to historical record, the word-play “Chess Nuts” was first used by a correspondent of the Illustrated London News as a signature. Mr. Staunton, thereafter, employed “Chess Nuts” as a heading for little collections of positions given in the Chess Player’s Chronicle and Illustrated London News. In a letter, April 7th, 1859, my co-adjutor writes:—“I have been meditating, cogitating, and ruminating still further upon that Book. I think you might feel the public pulse by announcing in the May Monthly that it is in contemplation to publish, under your Editorship, one thousand American Chess-Nuts, if a sufficient number of subscribers can be obtained to pay expenses; that the work would be published during the present year; that the price would be about two dollars per copy; that all composers who, wish to appear to the best advantage would do well to forward the latest versions of their productions; that subscribers’ names and problems can be sent either to E. B. C. or to W. R. Henry, Box 1129, P. O., New York, (as you think best); and any other thats that that undertaking may suggest to your mind. In addition, you might write a notelet to the same effect to the different Chess Editors. All this might be done without giving

a positive promise that the book should appear. I have ordered suitable diagrams, and shall employ my spare time in copying positions for the collection. At least, we can make a commencement. What will be the reply to our first move?” The next stop, was to see several of the leading publishers in New York. None of them were enticed by the unlucrative prospects of the work, and they suggested a subscription list of five or six hundred dollars handed over to one of the minor publishers. Then we issued the following PROSPECTUS. Provided a subscription list can be obtained sufficient to pay the expense of publication, it is in contemplation to issue, during the present year, a large collection of Chess Problems by American Composers. The book, will be under the Editorship of Eugene B. Cook and W. R. Henry; it will contain one thousand positions upon diagrams two and a half inches square, and the price will not exceed two dollars. The names of subscribers should be sent to W. R. Henry, Box 1129, New York City. Composers who wish their productions to appear to the best advantage are requested to forward the latest versions to the same address. The Editors would like, also, to publish the real name of the composer in every case, and to give the proper credit to the periodical in which each problem originally appeared.

This was sent to Chess Editors throughout the land, who were most lavish of praise in their notices of the project. In those palmy days—in the middle of 1859—the columns of Chess were a host. There were within our borders thirty newspapers devoting space to the peerless game. The co-editors continued hard at work. Mr. Henry made two unsuccessful experiments in having Chess type of a suitable size, and of new design, cast for the work. Then he thought of embellishing the book with short sketches of leading composers, and their portraits. Most of these lifelets were written, and three of the heads were finished—those of Loyd, Brown, and Potter. Mr. Henry copied everything supposed to be native, or duly naturalized, from books, periodicals, and from nearly complete files of a myriad of newspapers containing Chess articles. Noms de plume and pseudonyms often occasioned considerable embarrassment, as it was desired—as far as possible—to give the real names of composers, and to avoid including any foreign handiwork. Many problems were also obtained directly from the

VIII

AMERICAN CHESS-NUTS

authors, who contributed a goodly number of unpublished works. From Mr. Henry’s memoranda, it appears that—“The first American problem was published in the Spirit of the Times, March 1, 1845,—a Self-Mate in four moves, by C. H. S. [Stanley,] who was originally an Englishman.” “The next American author was Mr. H., of the N. Y. Chess Club, Aug. 30, 1845,” with a four move mate. Then followed,—“J. Knous, Sept. 6, 1845, four moves; N. O. K. [Marache,] Nov. 8, 1845, six moves; V. Estephe, No. 38 of Spirit; Agnel, Oct. 10, 1846, four moves; and D. Julien, 1847, (No. 7).” The first Chess diagram printed in America, setting forth a four-move mate by Mr. J. Knous, was given as No. 15 of the Spirit, then in its second year—previous to which time problems were verbally written out. This position was retouched by Mr. Henry to obviate a defect, and is given among the four-move problems. Names of subscribers came in very stragglingly—nearly all being obtained by the personal exertions of several earnest friends of the project. The lovers of Chess did not seem to realize the unremunerative character of the work, and the necessity of encouragement needed for its publication. But two hundred and twenty-five copies were bespoken, which would have defrayed only one-third of the estimated outlay. The required support not having been obtained, and the specified time having elapsed, both editors and subscribers were absolved from their conditional contract. Through the friendly efforts of Herr Löwenthal, once, as is well known, a sojourner in this country, the London Chess Club, St. James Chess Club, Coffee London Chess Club, Mr. F. Healey, and Mr. T. Sutherland—with the distinguished Hungarian himself— entered the lists as subscribers. Mr. Pedro N. Palmer, of Havana, ordered a most liberal number of copies. Those who most largely subscribed within our own borders were: Dr. Samuel Lewis and Prof. George Allen, of Philadelphia; Paul Morphy, of New Orleans; George N. Cheney, of Syracuse, N. Y.; Theo. M. Brown, Penn Yan, N. Y.; New York Chess Club; Col. Charles D. Mead, James Thompson, D. W. Fiske, N. Marache, W. H. Morrell, Robert J. Dodge, and Wm. C. Miller, of New York; Miss E. S. Torrey, New York; John Chapman, Boston; L. H. Southard, of Norfolk, Va.; John Gardner, Brooklyn; and W. H. Munday, Seneca Falls, N.Y. Included were the well-known names—S. Loyd, D. Julien, J. P. Barnett, C. H. Waterbury, W. J. A. Fuller, F. Perrin, T. Lichtenhein, B. I. Raphael, and

Thomas Loyd. A full list would be given, were it not feared that very many may not still care for the work. Mr. Miron J. Hazeltine kindly copied for us the problems in the Saturday Courier, of which he had been one of the Editors. Notwithstanding the failure to obtain the requisite encouragement from subscriptions, Mr. Henry proceeded with having diagrams electrotyped as far as problem No. 960. At that time the number of problems had swollen to about fifteen hundred. The ordinary large-sized type were those adopted, the White pieces being somewhat lightened out to make a stronger contrast with the Black; and four positions were to go upon a page. In experimenting with Chess type, in Chess type, in electrotyping, in portraits, &c., Mr. Henry expended over seven hundred dollars. At this juncture, the daily setting up of sixteen diagrams and “riding up and down in custody of two forms of Chess type,” in addition to his labors as chief clerk in a leading broker’s office, began to affect his health; so that June, 1861, found Mr. Henry rusticating in Massachusetts, devoting himself to horticulture. Here he remained until September, 1863. During this interval, Veit & Co., Publishers of the Handbuch and Schachzeitung, were applied to without success. Mr. H., then, for the further increase of his strength, started for Madeira, via England. In England he saw a number of the Chess celebrities, and added many problems to his manuscript collection. From England be was diverted to Brazil, where he remained only a fortnight, returning to the valley of the Connecticut in May, 1864. In the following December he made an excursion to Jamaica, chiefly in quest of rare seeds. At the beginning of the succeeding September, he was again established in the neighborhood of Wall Street, New York. All the while, the writer was in receipt of sparkling letters, most of which had a corner devoted to Chess. My last letter from him was dated October, 1865. At the close of December one of the saddest of calamities befell him, and in January he was no more. Mr. Henry was of very peculiar mind and temperament. He was possessed of one of the keenest intellects, which was highly and variously cultivated, and was very earnest and thorough in everything he undertook. He was unsurpassed as a letter-writer. For a short time he edited the Chess departments of the Saturday Press and Spirit of the Times, and wrote occasionally for other Chess organs. Mr. Henry, for a

X

time, was affected with bibliomania, seeking to obtain every edition of every Chess work. Later, he selected the works of practical value, and the remainder, after being offered en bloc to the highest bidder, went into the hands of a collector in England. Every position deemed of value was copied into his manuscript book. Had the American Chess-Nuts received sufficient encouragement, it was his design to have followed it with a world-wide collection. Mr. Henry composed but few problems; these are all excellent, and are numbered among the Nuts. His Transcriptions of the Old Masters are admirable. After Mr. Henry’s death, the writer determined to bide his time, and wait for the “tide in the affairs of men” which should bring in an argosy from the Indies. In the beginning of 1867, Mr. J. C. Romeyn wrote to inquire about the work, and the result of our correspondence led to his commencing its publication; but sickness and an increase of duties constrained him to relinquish the undertaking, after having progressed with an edition of five hundred copies, as far as the four hundred and fifth problem. A few copies were bound in paper and distributed. Shortly afterward, several friends signified their readiness to co-operate with material and other aid, and the writer determined to issue a circular letter “To the Lovers of Chess.” It was stated therein, that “the white sides of the Chess-Nut leaves were again up-turned, thirsting for their dues,” and that those inclined to become shareholders in the work would be allotted copies, or the proceeds of their sale, if preferred, in accordance with the amounts of their subscriptions. The distribution was to be based upon the actual cost of publication, so that shareholders would be participants in whatever profits might accrue from the sale of their copies. In conclusion, it was enjoined to bear in mind, “that greenbacks are a necessity to leaves put forth to the light.” The response to the appeal brought the aid needed for the publication of the present edition of the Nuts, but for which they would still remain “under a bushel.” As nearly as I can ascertain, Mr. Henry copied positions for the book up to May, 1861. Such as came in too late to be incorporated into the body of the work, were to have been given in an Appendix. The opening of the doors of Janus in April, 1861, caused a fearful stampede among the adherents of the Chess Monarchs, whose heralds were soon reduced to less than half a dozen. During the

war, but few original problems were published. At its close, the Chess-Nuts began again to put forth their leaves, and to spring into life. Works by leading composers of the newer times have been obtained from the authors and from newspapers, and have been added to make the work complete. Over three thousand positions have been inspected and culled from, since the inception of the project. This duty devolved chiefly upon E. B. C., who regrets that his strength was not such as to enable him to test all positions as thoroughly as he desired. Over a fifth of the problems were found to be more or less faulty, and many others were below the required standard. After the selections were made, Mr. Henry worked considerably at re-testing. He, also, by slight retouches, rescued from oblivion some of the finer old problems. Mr. Romeyn has aided in collecting positions of the later times, and has re-examined over a fourth of the problems in the work. The writer’s warmest thanks are due Messrs. Waterbury and Carpenter for their friendly co-operation. Mr. C. A. Gilberg has earnestly exerted himself in many ways in the service of the Nuts; has given the benefit of his counsel; has aided largely in the irksome task of preparing the copy of solutions, and has acted as supervising sentinel over the dragon-toothed errors of the press. Notwithstanding the care that has been taken, it can hardly be expected but that worms may be found lurking in some of the Nuts. Such fruit, however, oftentimes affords even greater entertainment to discoverers than that which is sound. Let solvers be sure to make the best defence, and to “Think gently of the erring!” In selecting problems for the book, the object was to represent leading composers by as full a collection of their works as possible, and to assign a niche to every author of merit. The older as well as the newer compositions are given, so as fairly to represent American Problemists. It is not generally known that Damiano, Ercole del Rio, D’Orville, Brede, Kuiper, Bone, and others of the older school, have sometimes built upon more than one leading defence; but such is the fact. Gems may be most artistically set either singly or in clusters. Many problems are to be found in this Collection which let fall precious stones from even more mouths than belong to the Ganges. Mates, Wins, Draws, Self-Mates, Conditionals, and Oddities, are all assigned a place. Subtleties both in few and in many moves are given. Some of the Nuts will be found

with shells thick enough, and having burrs with points enough, to gratify the cravings of the most ostrich-like digestion. It is customary to say that “problems in few moves are the best,” and therefore to eschew all others. Herr Capräz says truly, that “The highest point of artistic worth is to be restricted by no maximum of moves.” Excellence is limited only by the length of the human fathom. Because, as Dr. Boteler says, the Creator never made a better fruit than the strawberry, is it wise to close one’s mouth to every other kind—including Chess-Nuts of a larger growth? Mr. D. W. Fiske, calling problems the poetry of Chess, prettily says:— “Sparkling positions, terminating in a few moves wit a brilliant mate, are the lyrics of this art; while deeper conceptions, in many moves, and requiring long study, may be property compared to the stately epic.” Persons holding the widest views, value “each after its kind.” It was decided to be best to cast aside the plates already electrotyped, and to use smaller diagrams, so as to avoid the bulkiness consequent upon the number of problems; so as to make certain desirable alterations, and to lessen the expense of publication. It was also concluded to give the book a simple paper cover, whereby both the cost of its issue and the price per copy would be diminished. This would, moreover, facilitate its being sent by mail, and its being bound in accordance with the taste of the purchaser. Throughout the work, unless otherwise stated, White, has the first move. As in Alexandre, the words “White” and “Black” are not affixed respectively to the lower and upper sides of the diagrams, space being saved thereby, and it being supposed that those who seek this book will know the conventional practice. The solutions are given as compactly as is consistent with clearness—only the initial moves of the two-move nutlets being noted. The names of composers are arranged alphabetically under each division of problems, and, when known, the address is given the first time an author’s name appears. It now remains to indicate more particularly the sources whence the Nuts have been gathered. The foreign Chess Magazines, and many leading newspapers abroad allotting space to Chess, were duly searched for American Problems. At home, the native works on Chess, and periodicals devoted thereto, published prior to May, 1861, were carefully scanned. The reader may

find notices of very nearly all of these in the Book of the American Chess Congress. In the Chess Monthly for May, 1861, is an article— which it is fair to presume is by Mr. Henry—entitled “The American Chess colonnade,” in which notices are given of all cis-Atlantic Chess Columns, from March 1st, 1845, to April 20th, 1861. From this catalogue it appears that New York, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Louisiana, Minnesota, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri, California, Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Carolina, Tennessee, Rhode Island, Michigan, Mississippi, and Georgia—arranged according to priority of date—have had one or more Chess organs. Canada and Cuba have also supported Chessgiving newspapers. The “Colonnade” consists of eighty-five columns. From precisely how many of these Mr. Henry copied I cannot say: his “List of Sources” given me, contains the names of fiftyeight American newspapers. Subsequent to May, 1861, many problems have been collected both from their authors and from the publications of the day. The designers of this work have striven to erect, with gems mostly chipped from those columns, a Temple to Caissa, where her votaries may find both work and recreation, and which may redound to the honor of American Chess. E. B. COOK. Hoboken, July, 1868.

NOTES TO ELECTRONIC EDITION ... to be completed by and by ... ... [†] = no solution in stipulated nr of moves, [*] = more than one solution, [ ! ] = neither of the other two, but still not quite correct. (Good example is 3-mover nr 88, which has a solution in 3, but not the one printed as solution). ... check again: [!] is occasionally used to indicates notes/ The sources to Cook’s problems have been taken from Keidanz Chess Compositions of E. B. Cook of Hoboken, New York, 1927, except that all references to American Chess-Nuts with the date December 25, 1868, have been replaced by the book title alone, as it is not clear to me in which edition Cook’s problems were first published: the Cook-Henry-Gilberg edition or the earlier Cook-Henry-Romeyn edition. (Also, the copy of Keidanz’ book that I used lacked pages 147--150, which may account for some missing source references.) Two-movers: 152. corrected ... Keidanz, p 262 204. (pawn missing) see Keidanz, p 263 The sources to Loyd’s problems have been taken from White’s Sam Loyd and His Chess Problems, Dover Publications, New York, 1962. Corrected: ... one three-mover Solutions have been converted to algebraic notation ... the distinction between plain and discovered mates in the original text has not been retained ... additions have been set in brackets ... in general, the original solutions have been followed as far as has been practical ... if the original ‘any’ or ‘moves’ could be converted to a more specific notation without requiring extra lines, this has been done ... in a few cases, ambiguous solutions have been expanded. ... give examples ...
