tour of the Western country, Tom Allen,
the ex-pugilist and hard fighter in his
day, said to me: cts as much as a mans
life is worth to 90 into tie rirg with Sui
liysp, much le3s than to run the risk OF
being hit by him. He's got the wickedest
eve ever saw outside of a snake, ard
there's murder in it."

at Mississippi City, La. What proved the
last round had been fought, and Sullivan
vas waiting for his man to face him again
Turning TO the man behind him Sullivan
said savagely, and his look showed he
mesnt it, 1T he comes up in front of me
