Excerpt from The Game of Checkers, Barker Vs, Martins, International Match Games for £100 a Side, and the Championship of Great Britain and America: Played at Glasgow, Scotland, Between Charles Francis Barker, Champion of America, and Robert Martins, Champion of Great Britain, Commencing on December 26, 1887, and Ending January 10, 1888 Mr. Barker was born in Boston, in 1858, and has a wonder ful record for so young a man. When but fifteen years of age he met the famous Herd Laddie, James Wyllie, the champion of the world, and against this player of the first class he made the creditable record of three games won, ten lost, and twelve drawn. After this he met most of the lead ing players of America, one of his most noted matches being that against David Kirkwood, of Boston, a former leading English player, this match ended in a tie, each player se curing two wins, with twenty-one drawn. Mr. Barker next tried conclusions with the late W. H. Broughton, of Portland, Me. This match also resulted in a tie.
