himself for an instant to get set
for the oncoming Furr who
four times sailed half way
across the ring into his har.
raSsed and defenseless foe, utter
ly unable to drop him for a
count.
Sloughing a left to the head
and a right to the body, Furr'S
blows in that round seemed as
though they would cut the frail
Bowen in two, but he would
only bob his head, Stagger on
his feet and remain erect as
though being supported by tiny,
unseen wires.
But even the valiant BowenS
are only human and therefore
subject to the weaknesses of all
flesh. For nine long rounds,
nine of the fastest, most furious
though bloodless rounds Wash
ington no doubt has ever seen,
the last of the Bowens took it,
before the body crumbled in a
heap to the floor a beaten fig
ure for whom there were as
many cheers, if not more, than
for his oppreSsor.
