  Phony Benoni: Marshall's comment on this game, from the <American Chess Bulletin>, May/June 1915, p. 104:

<"There is little to be said about this game. I felt, after twenty-two moves, that the position was good only for a draw, and, as it was offered, I accepted it. Since then I have had many regrets, and I have been told by several that I should have played to a finish. On that day, however, my nerves were not to my liking and that is my reply.">

Yes, even Marshall, whose zest for chess and aggressive attitude were matched by few, could have "One of those days".
