His success, coupled | with his free manne a certain social triumph and his subsequent po- | sition as a semi-public character pro- | .clalmed him a sort of dignitary in the sporting world. After his nine round fight with Paddy Ryan on the strip of green- sward on the Gulf of Mexico, the word “knockout” was manufactured by Billy Madden, Sullivan’s trainer, to describe the effects of his blows | when properly delivered. | His hardest fight was with Jim Kil- sain. It was fought near New Or- leans and lasted for 75 rounds. That was the last championship contest in the United States to be fought with bare knuckles, under the old rules. That fight practically decided the usclessness of trying to beat Sulli- | van by combatting him in his own sledge-hammer style. A -round fight with Charley Mitchell, a wary wand skillful boxer, seemed to show fighting managers that the t John L. might be vulnerable a man who could box well and 4 with him long enough to wear down. The opportunity to try method on the chanipion fell James J. Corbett. The purse the largest ever put up in a ‘pattle up to that time. The was $25,000 and the stakes $20,000. The fight that was to end John L.’s | championship was fought before the | Olympic club of New Orleans. When | the fight was over there was a new thampion of the world. Sullivan was at the time of his defeat. Sullivan said himself that he made two millions in the fighting business that he spent one million of it in buying drinks for himself and his host of admirers. He had knocked out one sort or another in career, and finally he s loon in Terre Taute > gave the “Bla Bottle,” atest enemy, the knockout Sop. On the occasion of the decision with regard to the “Black Bottle,” re said: ‘If 1 take another drink, I hope I hoke, so help me God.” He never fook another, but kept up his fight for temperance by lecturing oc- casionally on the evils of drink for those who have athletic ambitions. He was born in Boston October 15, 1858, and passed the later years of his life on a farm which he owned near West Abington, Mass. He was twice married. His first wife was Annie Bates, of Centerville, R. L, whom he married in 1882, but with *hom he lived only a few months and from whom he obtained a di- vorce on the ground of desertion af- 6 years. At 51 years of age the v champion took as his second Kate Harkins, of Roxbury, who his sweetheart years before he was “The Boston Strong a 1thlc His 3 gr to st him this to | was ring | 200 men, of his fighting d that in : Ind., in 19 his *wife was when Boy."” ullivan, who was 59 years-old, had lived on a farm here for the last ten ears.
