Final
By the time the semi-final was to be played, the Leinster championship was not finished, so Dublin were nominated to represent Leinster. When Louth beat Dublin in the Leinster final, they were given Dublin's place in the All-Ireland semi-final.
Final
1 The final was scratched and Louth were awarded the championship after Kerry refused to travel to Dublin. This was because the Great Southern and Western Railway company would not sell tickets to their supporters at reduced rates.[5]
