BY M,LISS


How Bob Fitzsmmons fought his last
fight in Chicago hospital was told yes
terday
Today an old painter, with his English
accent as strong as tho smell OF the llnseed
oil upon him, perched on the nth rung Of
ladder in a subterranean passageway in
the Drexel Building and interrupting his
work told how "Bobbie" his brother, fought
his first fight
He was only little nippe- then" Bill
Fitzsimmons said proudly, but he could
fight. Bobbie was born fighter. think
ho wanted to be up TO his scrapping from
the day our mother bore him.
"Bobble's first public fight came long be-
fore he emgrated from where he was born
IN Cornwall, Eng to New Zealand. and he
cmigrated when he was nine.
AS near as I can remember tho little
nipper was about five on tho occasion Of
his first public appearance" the brother
continued, his lips twisting with humorous
reminscence "Bobble was the Youngest
Of seven sons and as such he ought to have
been lucky" the brother paused in dubiety
over the great heavyweight champions good
fortune; at any rate, he was lucky in
fights.
L
England. our Oldest brother belonged to the
AdmraNs fleet He was coNswain and we
took the little nipper UP TO see him. Five
years old he was, but he ct away from us
We found him in the middle Of the street
holding two fellows almost twice his size
off
we took him away and put him to bed
But that was tho start. You can't keen a
good fighter from aGhting The little nippcr
UP and went to New Zealand when he was
nine and started in TO learn tho blacksmith
trade but the fight in him was too strong
ind have made a Crackcrjack blacksmith,
but he was a better fighter
Bob was an honest good-hearted. cpen-
palmed man." the brother said in that de-
taChed fashion that VIC use in discussing
people whose ways lie apart from ours
but he had a crowd of hangers-on leeches
They bled him l don't know as he has left
anything much. I haven't seen or heard
from him for two years-that was when he
came to Philadelphia for some fight or
other and | went 20 the station to meeS
him
He wasn't like the little nipper he used
to be We was strangers. but tha, was to
be expected. our lives have been differ

They say as how Bobbie married a re-
lgious lady, a evangelist" he pondered.
"and then broke away from her and come
back to her again when he was dying
don't know about Bobbc; 7 never met the
lady. anyway this very proudly
married n girl back in my own country
como forty years now, and ! brought her
