I had not Gisited the Inn since Ketchel’s day.

I could remember Ketchel, with bis cowboy hat and high heeled voots, and red handkerchief knotted around his neck, jumping from the |) still quivering car with a reckless Seer laugh. I could hear his high heelet boots stamping up the stairway to the dressing room. There was some- thing of gloom in the recollection, | meade more suggestive by the stone-' yard pext door. Dillon was in the old dining room, |" cleared and used now as « boxing ring. He was just finishing a lot of, shadow boxing.

Yet in action his foot work was very fart. He dashed ‘in and out like @ lightweight. Me seemed to favor straight hitting— and he hit hard. He looks as good a intddle-weigh: New York.
