Scottish Championship 1905

The 22nd Annual Congress of the Scottish Chess Association took place at the Station Hotel, Stirling, opening on Good Friday, 21st April, and closing on Wednesday, 26th April. The “Championship” Tourneys were interesting, rather more players taking part than is, perhaps, usual, and for the second consecutive year, Dr. R.C. Macdonald, of Glasgow CC, again succeeded in winning the “Major” event with the splendid score of 8 wins, which was, indeed, the highest possible score.
