(Uncle Tom) MeCAREY SRE was a time when the name of “Young” Corbett was &@ famous name among the followers of boxing. It was Corbett who had defeated the great Terry Mc- Govern, a feat believed impossl- ble at the time. Corbett devel- oped a liking for the white lights, and this, no his career and helped to short- en tt. Never shall I forget the time that I matched “Young” Corbett with Aurelio Herrera, the great Mexican light- welght, for a battle in Los Angeles. Corbett at the time I opened ne- Rotlations with him, was in San , Francisco. He was very fond of the horses, and I had learne@ that he was in bad straits financially. FIER sending him tickets to come to Los Angeles, I made| up my mind that I would go to the depot, meet him with a hearty wel- come and try to cheer him up by leaving a hundred-dollar bill as I sreeted him. Because of so many people around Us, Corbett, whom I knew was broke except for the money I had! Just given him, didn’t take a chance Mt glancing at it Corbett was a quick thinker, and he said: “Where is the telephone booth?” This was only a blind of his to see the size of the bill, When he returned his face was Tull of rand he shook hands with me again, patting me on the Phack and xaying, ‘Tom, what hotel would you suggest? Which is the est one here We went up town, had something 10 eat, experienced quite a nice time and then went to the beach to rrange for training quarters, as It was in the summer time OW this hundred-dollar bill which I gave “Young” Corbett 10 cheer him along temporarily, cer: tainly did {ts work. It formed a frlendly tlo betwen us and I was Kreatty surprised one morning about How a Hundred Dollar Bill Saved Ring Honor doubt, affected | The lettex was very plain and to| the point.

The $20,000 which you think Is coming | from these certain parties (their) names were signed to the letter) in| reality is not. They are handing it to you, but they are collecting it out of the pockets of all your friends, $5, $10, $20 and $100 aplece. | “The bookmakers, the horsemen, the little jockeys, the bartenders, walters and all those men who have been your close followers will be| giving this money, which in fact is| being stolen from them.
