Here is an old chess problem. I think I saw it in a book one time. It may have been Paul Morphy: The Pride and Sorrow Chess. If anyone can shine light on where I saw it or who composed it (Possibly Morphy), please do so.

White to move. It's a fairly easy one. 🙂

The idea of Ra6 comes definitely from Morphy and is the only composed problem he ever made; I'm not sure where he originally placed the Rook. On the Internet it can be found on a1, a2, a3, a4 and a5 (and mirrors with the whole construction along the h file instead as well).
