The battlefield was the Carlyle A.C, which ts about two sleeps from New York, somewhere down tn the @nexplored § wilderness of outer Brooklyn. I went to the end of a @ar line and landed on an ice pack. After @ hazardous climb over the Bummocks I found the club, a huge, Darolike structure once used as a @ummer dancing pavilion. In ita cold @torage interior half a crowd of speo- tators was shivering through the pro- Mminaries. When they were over at last there was a long delay, and finally Stewart climbed into the ring, muffled in a dressing gown. Morris came in with coat and troveers ever his fighting tows, Charlie White @timbed up and, after hopping around the ring to warm up, removed hie ovat nd vest and hat. The spectators shive @red.

Big as he was, the Okla- Reme giant looked as slim and sinewy 08 8 boy. Stewart wandered out of his corner nd stood within easy range of Morris, aiting for the bell. White sent him back, and then the gung olanged and they were off. ERHAPS it was because of a de P fire to wet warm tn a hurry that they began slamming away with.
