the way. He fioored Burns for nine
counts in the first round and sent him

round but the champion bounded back
on his feet Immediately.
In the latter part of the fight john
son rained rights and lefts upon the
face and body of Burns. whose mouth
and eyes were badly distorted from
the shower of blows. A swollen jaw
added TO his misery.

negro .eyen in his defeat years later
Always he smiled and frequently he
uttered mock encouragement TO the
man he was whipping. He talked con-

him to attack. the defiance ever soft

Now and then Johnson cast aside his
smile and attended strictly to bust,
