very little money the later years of his

his income was from temperance lect-

years-and occasional theatrical tours.

Clarence w. Rowley and other Boston
friends, he was engaged in floating n

with the eX-champion in the star role
and his old foe, J ohm Barleycorn, promi-

ever, had not passed beyond the flota-

Sullivan took UP this scheme after
his failure to secure work with various
patriotic societies before and since the
outbreak of war as lecturer: 1t was
his belief that he could carry the ap-
peal of patriotism to large element in
the country that other speakers could

and those fond Of boxing, with whom
he held his popularity to the last.

At that time Sullivan was apparently
IN the best of health, due, he asserted,
to his long abstinence from liquor.
