il matched with the Grewsome and
Cory Geyer AT the Stadium 4. {. The
former motOrinan wants a return match
with Frank Moran, who twice caressed
his fragile jaw with a 42-centimetre
right. This desire would indicate that
Shamus is a glutton for punishment
Moran IS perfectly willing 20 oblige
Cofey in this regard, providing the
purse is large enough While Moran
was training for Willard Cofey visited
him al the Chateau 'Awkins 20 pass The
time Of day.
I'D like another fight wild ye, Frank"
said Shamus.
Certainly, my dear James" said
Moran. u don't know Of any man d
rather fight Ii has been great ? easure
and profit 20 me TO knock you out
twice. And you're such a decent sort
that I'd be glad 10 do Il again, just 20
oblire you"
Thank ye, Frank. 'Tis kind Of ye 70
say So" obseryed CoFey gratefully.
Don't mention il, James" returned
Moran, politely. The pleasure has been
all mine
one Of the reasons why Sharus is so
anxious for the third match is that,
while he has been habitually knocked
out by Moran, he has always found his
handbook fatter upon recovering con-
sciousness. Shamus figures that u is
always a pleasure TO be tapped upon the
chin at six or eight thousand bones per
tap.
