athulin: Tourney source is probably best expressed as 'Burnley Express', as the name changed in the period.
First publication: Burnley Express and Advertiser, i. 173 (1881-03-26), p. 3, prb. 164.
The reference to a reprint in Canadian Chess Problems below seems odd: as far as I can find that problem is a #3 by G. A. Robinson with a quite different position. (https://books.google.se/books?id=bywVAAAAYAAJ&dq=canadian%20chess%20problems&pg=PA140#v=onepage&q&f=true) (2022-09-28)
Mario Richter: Anders is right, Dieter mixed up two sources: the correct reprint source name is not 'Canadian Chess Problems', but 'The Chess Problem. Text-Book with illustrations', p. 157, Problem 140. (Its publication year is usually given as 1886, not 1887).
One general remark: when introducing new sources in the PDB, the information provided should make it possible to identify the source uniquely. That is, names like 'Times', 'Mail', or in this case 'Express' without additions, should be avoided. I know that this is not easy, since in many cases the problem data comes only from secondary sources, where the original source may only be given in rudimentary form (e.g. something like "Our today's problem is taken from 'The Mail'"). Perhaps it would be better in such cases to not introduce a new source but onlyx to make a remark in the comment field of the problem ... (2022-09-28)
