win or lose with him.
The affair was arranged on the quiet,
not because of any fear of polica, interfer-

would want to see the set-to but would not
pay for the privilege.
1t was arranged for six round set-to

ever the result, was pledgeL to give an
honest opinion of Boulanger's abilitv.
Boulanger was to do his best and Allen said
in advance that it he could stand up with
him ten rounds he would be good enough to
meet any one of his weight in New Eng
land: With Aliens record of two draws with
good men, no one looked for Boulan ger to
get the best of IT. There was no lettering
on the result, 1T was just question of how
good showing BoIlanger could make.
