that he has not yet won anything from
me, either titles or money"
"James f. Owens.
"Boston, Mass. June IA. 1879"
In connection with this match it is
said by one who is living now and who
attended the match that the referee
made this remark: IF Mr.. Dufur could
not win, Owens would not"
Now for the main issue of Mr.. Flagg's
statement, namely that he was the cham.
pion OF collar end elbow wrestling. Mr.
Flagg may have been champion of bis
regiment during the Civil war, but this
was before the palmy days of wrestling,
According to Mr.. Flagg's own statement,
he perfected himself after the war.
In his communication OF Nov. I, he
states that trio consisting of I'll. M.
Dufur, John Mcmahon and himself trav.
elled up and down the state and that
in the matches between themselves both
McMahon and Dufur often managed to
take a fall out of the Braintree cham
pion, but the matches were always lost.
In his communication of Nov. %, he
says that he and McMahon have never
come together on the mat since the war
The statements are contradictory. Mr..
Flagg also said that match was often
talked of between himself and Mcmahon,
but some conditions were always lacking
to suit Mcmahon. This statement would
lead the public to believe that Mcmahon
was afraid to meet him.
If Mr.. Flagg was as anxious in those
days to meet Mr.. Mcmahon as he would
now like to have 1t appear, why did he
not accept the challenge made by Mr.,
Mcmahon after he won the match from
Col. j. H. Mclaughlin in which, he an
nounced that he was ready to wrestle
any man in the world, collar and elbow
for a stake of from $1,000 to $4,000 a
side! And again on Jan. o. 1879. Nc
Mahon issued challenge to Colonel
Mclaughlin for purse of $1,000. III
Mr.. Mclaughlin does not choose to &C.
cept this challenge | will on the same
terms wrestle Messrs. Owens, Dufur,
Cox, Connors, Murphy, or any other man
in the world" Did Mr.. Flagg accept eth
er of these challenges7
Mr.. Flagg, claiming to have been a
professional wrestler should have known
the rules under which a championship
was held.
Any man holding such championship
must answer to a challenge within six
months of date of issue or forfeit his
title to the same. Did Mr.. Flagg ever
challenge Mcmahon? No, Mr.. Editor, he
did not.
The following championship matches
are engraved on the belt held by John
McAfahon:
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1913-12-08

Mr.. Mcmahon wrestled in ls2 prize
matches in his life besides many exhibit
ton matches and made more than $50
900 in prize money besides twice as much
in side bets and never lost match.
l find that Mr.. Flagg wrestled Edward
Cox of Fairfield at Armory hall at st.
Adams, VT, Oct. Is, 1879. Mr.. Cox won
one fall, then after wrestling some time
the referee gave them so long a time to
finish in. Mr.. Flagg stood out and would
not move until time was called and the
referee declared the match draw. Does
Mr.. Flagg claim the collar and elbow
