Source-derived summary

The 1905 Primera División was the 5th season of top-flight football in Uruguay. CURCC won its 3rd. league title, after winning all matches played.

Overview

The tournament consisted of a round-robin championship. It involved five teams, and was marked by the death of Nacional symbol footballers, Carlos and Bolivar Céspedes, due to the smallpox epidemic in June of that year. In turn, the lackluster performance of Albion hinted that the end was near for this institution, which did not fit with semi professional practices that began to appear in some institutions.

The account is most persuasive where Campeonato, Uruguayo and Primera can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as 5th season of the top-tier football league in Uruguay. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2526408. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1905.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
