Provo, May I'm glancing over the

not expect to take it up as a profess
sion. ! am not seeking for notoriety in
that line. | am not aspiring to the
championship Of Utah; neither have 1
got the big-head simply because l had
an easy victory over Mr.. Clark of Salt
Lake City. 1 have not expressed my
Willingness to meet champion Jim VIII :

or any other man. Neither have | made
use of language that could be so con-
strued, as ] do not know that l shall
ever enter the ring again.

stripped, and not 165 pounds. as stated
I have never had a trainer. and ac-
cordingly have never fitted myself for
d contest of any kind. Ali | know in
that line comes through natural ability
backed up by common "gumption."
In justice 10 your correspondents, I
would state there IS more or less spec
ulation as to the respective merits OF
myself and Mr.. Williams, /. G., on the
street corners. and he no doubt wrote
the article with the impression that
entertained a desire to carry off more
pugilistic laurels by trying so with
our champion.
Kindly correct the impression and
oblige yours respectfully,
