DUFFY Gets
THE DECISION

The big tistic fight between larry
Duffy and Ed Kelly was pulled off at
A. b. hall on Monday night last before
good house, Duffy being given the
decision after the 10Th round by Referee
Tom Rollins. A four round prelimin-
arv between two of the Fort Davis
boys Smith and Mueller, opened the
proceedings.
Duffy and Kelly stepped into the ring
at 10. 35 and at 1885 the men commence
ed business in earnest, with Tom ROl-
Inns as referee. The referee declared
the contest would be strictly according
TO Marquis of Queensberry rules, and
the men would strike with one arm free
and hit in the clnches.
Duffy had the best of the first round
and proved to be the better man in the
clinches.
Rounds two and three were about
even. and in the fourth and fifth both
men we're at it for all they were worth.
DUFFY had little the best of both these
rounds, and brought Kelly to the floor
with right on the chin.
Both men came up fresh for the sixth
round, and from the sixth to the ninth
several good blows were landed by
each man. Duffy seemed to have Kelly
at his mercy in the seventh, eighth and
ninth. and the big soldier brought his
man to the floor twice during these
rounds, Furnishing Kelly severely, his
face looking like a Hamburger steak
at the finish of the eighth.
Kelly revived little in the eleventh
round and had all the best OF it. He
| landed the best blow Of the fight or
Duffys face in this round.
| From the twelfth to the sixteenth
round Duffy punished Kelly severely
and had him floored in the twelfth ano
sixteenth. 1t certainly looked as
though it was all over bar shouting.
Round sixteen was about even going
Kelly came up bit fresher in this
round, although he looked very much
disfgured.
| From now on to the finish the fight
| ing was pretty fierce, several gooc
blows being landed by each man, ano
in the twentieth round Kelly agar
went to the floor but was on his fee
again before being counted out.
Referee Rollins Immediately gave
his decision in favor OF Duffy, the de
cision being we'll received by the large
crowd OF spectators. Both men showed
excellent form, and Duffy showed {
marked improvement in his fighting
the manner in which he guarded some
of Kelly's blows being very noticeable
Kelly stood the punishment he received
as only Kelly can, and the manner il
which he revived after each round wa!
surprising.
