49.—Some severe struggling; the English Champion fibbing Langan till he went down.
50.—The face of Spring did not exhibit any marks of punishment, but the left hand of Langan had told now and then upon his body. The English Champion appeared getting weak from the struggles, and from several heavy falls. Both down.
51.—The rounds were now short—the crowd pressing upon the men at every step they took. Spring received a heavy hit on the side of his head. In closing, both went down.
52.—Close quarters. An exchange of blows; both again down.
53.—Langan hit Spring, and also got him down.
54.—The English Champion had no room now to jump away from his antagonist. Spring, in closing, fibbed Langan down.
55.—Struggling for the throw, but Langan undermost.
56.—The outer roped ring had been for the last hour in the greatest disorder. The constables’ long poles were useless; the whips of the fighting men were of no avail; and the mob was now close up to the ring. Spring put in the most hits on the nob of his opponent; but the strength of Langan in getting Spring down surprised every one present. Both down.
57.—Spring received a fall, and Langan upon him.
58.—So much disorder now prevailed, that it was difficult for those persons who were placed only at a few yards’ distance from the ring to see the fight. Langan on the ground, and undermost.
