moved down the road slowly, keeping ;
lookout for suitable ground.
At last hill on Pat. Lanes farm
twenty miles from Covington and one
mile from Walton, was decided on.
AS soon as possible the ring was
formed and the fight began.
Before leaving the first ground a fght
occurred on the train between Ton
Finn and Pat. Maloy on one side, and
Barney Aaron and Red Leary on the
other,
Maloy was severely cut about the
head, and Finn was beaten In the head
with reYolvor.
No less than seven pistols were drawn
and serious atfray was imminent, but
the fight was stopped by the crowd.
The Battle Goes ON.
Sheriff Steel came to the ring, but as

fresh. Allen, after awhile, struck a
good blow and again drew blood from
above Goss' left eye; counter on each

Thirteenth Round-A terrific blow on
Goss' mouth and nose, the blood spirit

knees.
1t seems impossible for Goss to last
much longer. His face looks like raw

Nothing but an accident can give him
the fight.
