It was Jellis, not Parton, who said 'it is usual to forgo it.' This is a
crucial point, because Parton, not Jellis, is the inventor of this game.
If Parton had said it, we could safely assume that Alice Chess has no en
passant, but Jellis does not speak of the game with anything like the
authority of its inventor.

I'll look at the page on Passar Battaglia later. I'm not up on the term
and cannot comment on it at this time.
