O'Brien ran away from Burns
from the first round to the finish

latter able to overtake him. Then
O'Brien invariably clinched until
the referee pried them apart.
The crowd hooted and jeered
O'Brien as he raced about the
ring. Few blows of vigor were
landed by either man.
Both of O'Brien's eyes were
damaged and his lips were cut,
but Burns had scarcely a
scratch. Burns showed his dis.

peatedly to "Come on and fight y
Now and then Burns would over
take him and beat him on the
back, O'Brien attempting wildly
to duck away, until Burns, weary
of the foot race, would stand in

O'Brien TO come to a halt.
O'Brien landed many light blows
at long range on Burns head
and face during his capers but
