and will meet all corners and will
consider any reasonable offer for a

that. the public would like to see him

three years before he engaged in any
1eal ling contest. Fitzsimmons also
held the boards for a long time and.
Jeffries followed suit. Willard will
break all precedent and cancel his
theatrical and circus dates any time
