18	Henry Bernard Uber	withdrew after 8 rounds - score cancelled

Draw number - taken from the order in which the crosstable was posted in BCM, April 1911, p151. It may not necessarily be the draw number (and even if it is, the pairing system used not known). Very few dates or round numbers of games are available.

One of the included games is Colman 1-0 H B Uber. The latter took part but withdrew after eight rounds and his score was cancelled.

This was William Ward's sixth City of London Championship title.
