notes
  • OH/JL (by process of elimination) credit Joseph Baker with Thistle's first, but this is contradicted by GH/SC/DC/BNL all of whom say it was Walter Lindsay. We've yet to see a report which credits Baker, and we are therefore obliged to go with Walter Lindsay, as per the latter majority view.
