THE FIGHT.
_ _

Round 1. After the men shook hands from the rcratch, it
was clear conneh t►at nothing but fighting was =east, but
an unlucky omen occurred to Hall, as the ladies would term
it; when he doffed ►is caster into the ring the wind blew it
out again, and hie second effort was scarcely enough. At
'the set-to, Hall, who stripped a very GOe yOOlll, NUM. about
twelve stone, made severe play. He'snisred WI rushing hit
from hotness, but a rally followed, and Hall placed a half-
arm blow on his adversary's eye ; ionic smart hitting ful•
lowed at all points, and nothing bat good earnest was meant.
Beth went does wisded.

2. A very (see cowl, and strong exchange, of hits on
equality. The rush of Hall, a/a Gas, was well envois, and
it told is this ►ownd spot the nose of Neale, which emitted
Claret in spoonful. It was trick aed tic, as both were
Warded in prime order.
3. Hall had the best of this ►ound, which was one of a
mangling kind. Hall cleared ins coarse and floored his
adeersary.

4. Neale bled freely hem the nose, and after bitting Hall
closed upon hies, sad had • try at securing. Both men
wasted a slice of Randall's tattles at this gam►. All the
hammering was tiresome to Hall for want of knack, but
superior silearth gave Neale a heavy fall.
Both stew had vest fusight themseltea, sad much hug-
ging look place in distress in the two subsequent runnhs.
6. A manly Aghtiwg round, in which Neale bad decidedly
the beep, and he threw his man well.
The 9th was a lame round, but the 10th was the hest in
the fight. Neale suet his adversary's rush by a left-handed
seer, which he shook his bead at, •nmuzzled, and turned to
at real work. The men doe's' twice, and broke loose SCOW/
and returned to slaughter work, sod fought each other to
their lest aisainine. They even fought when half down.
11. Neale here began to fight opus a winning system, and,
as Bob Grego*, used to say, he made use of his peed. IA hen
both were tired, Neale fought at • point, breaking ground,
and receiving his adversary's head with his kit inanieg,
upon the rush, which arced hiss oat, and ekaneeriffed it
uncommonly.
We need not follow rout teen other rounds iu detail. There
was mach equal Widow and equal earliest work. Hall was
ever bury, sad Neale was artist h to judge theroad to
win; and the goodness of Hall often bruoght the other's
giving qualifications to a stand-sail—but we are all slurped
in tern.

Yd. This round sent Hall le slumber, or *chemise, es the
done is technically termed. Mier a manly rotund, Hall re-
ceived a heavy fall, w►ic► seat ►im late a five minutes'
akep, and as be wu deaf 10 lime, Neale woe the light in
forty-two minutes. It was altogether as brave a light as
ever leuk place or Womblrmo Common.
