Hi Norm
Here is a game where the loser did resign one move before a forced castling mate
was possible on the next move.
[Event "London"]
[Site "?"]
[Date "1911.??.??"]
[Round "?"]
[White "Edward Lasker"]
[Black "George Allan Thomas"]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "A80"]
1. d4 e6 2. Nf3 f5 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. Bg5 Be7 5. Bxf6 Bxf6 6. e4 fxe4 7. Nxe4 b6 8.
Ne5 O-O 9. Bd3 Bb7 10. Qh5 Qe7 11. Qxh7+ Kxh7 12. Nxf6+ Kh6 13. Neg4+ Kg5 14.
h4+ Kf4 15. g3+ Kf3 16. Be2+ Kg2 17. Rh2+ {Kg1 18. O-O-O#} 1-0
