	Howard Staunton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Staunton lost the match, 3.5-2.5, but later arrangements where made for a second match, to be held in Paris.

		Staunton refused to play Paul Morphy in public during the latter's visit to England in 1858, saying he was too busy working on his Shakespeare annotations.

		As Staunton's numerous stage roles continued to earned her critical success, frequent television and film roles made her a familiar and endearing face to the general public -- offering the near-perfect formula for enduring success.
		Moving into the new millennium, Staunton's roles in such films as Chicken Run (for which she provided the voice of Bunty), Crush, Bright Young Things, and I'll Be There seemed to find the established television actress actively distancing herself from the small screen in favor of feature films.
		Regardless, Staunton still essayed the occasional small-screen role, and by the time she portrayed none other than the Queen Mother in the 2003 U.K. miniseries Cambridge Spies, any questions as to her ability to reach beyond the down-to-earth characters which built the foundation of her screen career were emphatically silenced.

	Howard Staunton and Chess by "Electric Telegraph" by John Hilbert
		Although Howard Staunton (1810-1874) is best remembered by chessplayers today as the only English world champion and the man who refused to play a match with Paul Morphy, his contributions to chess and the popularity of its play tend to be lost in the dusty pages of time.
		Staunton noted that the English Telegraph Company had been reluctant to leave open a line exclusively for this form of chess play between London and any other major English metropolis, but that such a condition had been met for these two cities.
		Staunton, while giving no games with his initial report, did note with evident appreciation that the distance between Sydney and Adelaide being on the order of 1,500 miles, and as every move had to be repeated, a move traveled 3,000 miles.

		Staunton did not originate the design for chessmen named after him, though he did advocate the design and, for a fee, permitted a facsimile of his signature to be included with every “authentic” set.
