tonishingly Agile one was boxing at

way and Andre was precipitated TO
the hard floor on the back Of his
head. 4 heavy sparring partner fell
out on top Of him.
This accident merely illustrates
tho astonishing agility OF the as
founding Andre said Mr.. Johnston
Inst night THE fall would have
killed any fighter but Andre. II shows
that Andre cannot even be ruiiled By
blow on the bean. lie broke three
heavy planks on the floor. but did
