When the Loser in a Fight Got Only
Snowballs.
I used TO try to fight on a loser

the other fellows didn't want to take

with the whole of the purse going to

cording TO Wyatt carp. Tom got all
there was, and carp got reputation
that has lasted him. while Fitz got
only good advice.
Taking the game by and large, 1 do

the loser needs money when he gets

stake the loser in my fights when there
wasn't any of the purse coming TO him,
for they were nearly all good sports
and took the long chance in going

1t took game man TO fight under
the old conditions, for not only did he
stand to lose the purse. but usually
each fighter made a heavy side bet on
himself. and defeat meant snowballs
for the loser IL he managed to keep
