provided he would throw up the sponge. Sui
Ivan generously answered.: .'Of course Il

ton OF his principal, and to save him further

the world.
The only marks on Sullivan were slight cut
under the right eye and another on the left ear.
K.lrain's body showed the effect Of Sullivan 4
blows and he was bleeding at thesears, nose
and mouth. Both men were hurr!edlY, con

Donovan threw up the sponge. He pro-

Sullivan did not feel his blows. Donovan,
Stevenson and others sponged Kilrain and
gave him draughts of whisky and water
while he was talking. They comforted
him as much as possible, and though they
