lixrad.—Awery fevers battle was fought early
yefierday morning, in a meadow leading from Cran
ford to Uxbridge, between George Holmes, a coach-
man, from Dunfden, l3erks (who fought and gained
a very hard battle with a proteffor, known by the
appellation of Jemsny the black, a few Months ago),
and Gabril Heaier, a navigator, of eitraoidinary
macular power and flue, the appearance of whom
was alone fufficient to Itrike his adierfary with terror.
Holmes, who is not above the middle nature, is an
experimental bruifer, who, by a decent knowledge in
the art of his proration, has uniformly Nanciuilhed his
opponents in half a fcore battles. This match was
for fifty gbineas. The navigator had feareely began
to fet to, when be ailed furioufly on the offenfire, by
running In at his opponent with all his might ; both
his hits, right and lett, were flopped, and he received
fuch a facer as broke his nofe, and by a left handed
hit at the fame moment in the flomach, be lay van-
' tionlefs, having received more injury in the firft round
than, ;what* . the oldeft amateur ever witneffed
His frame and nature, however, sas as well calcti-
fated to receive as the power of his adverfary could
give:
The battle continued half an hour without the na-
vigator's being able to put in one blow, be having
received a certain quantum in every round. With
this apparent advantage to Holmes he grew weak,
and it was even bettrngs whether the novice would
ntlt wear him out. Whilti in this feeble (late Holines
received one of the fwingin blcisos of his adverfary
under the left ear, which fu crippled him, that he was
carried to face his man again at the expiration of
the half minute, when he fell, and a fufpenlian of
tloßilities enfued for the deciflon of the fpee'fators,
whether the navigator was not entitled to the flakes.
it was given fair, and. Holmes having gained his
ftrength, he continued the battle until he beat the
navigator quite blind, who, however, fought in that
fituation another half hour, until his features were
invifible, when he was taken away, and Holmes was
declared the vi4lor.
The contefi hafted an hour and twenty minutes, in
the pretence of a decent field of fpettators.
