Silver or Bronze?[edit]

It not clear what medal they won. Moseleys website says silver, the official Olympic website Silver. What I suspect happened was they were award Bronze at the time, when it wasn't officially recognised as an Olympic sport, but when it was recognised (1912?), they were retrospectively given Silver.
