10.—​Bendigo sent home a tremendous whack on the left eye, which drew claret. Looney seemed amazed, and put up his hand to “wipe away the tear.” Looney thrown.

11.—​A very long struggle on the ropes, in which Looney appeared awkwardly situated, but he got down with little damage.

12.—​Up to this round there was not a visible mark of punishment on Bendigo. Looney put in two hits on the left ear, but was thrown through the ropes, Bendigo over him.

13.—​Looney hit short with his right on the body, but was more successful in the next effort; planted it on the ribs, and staggered Bendigo to the ropes, where both struggled down.

14.—​A capital round, in which some heavy hits were exchanged, and Looney fell.

15.—​Looney staggered his man again with his right, and, in making another hit, Bendigo dropped on his nether end, throwing up his legs and laughing. (Great disapprobation.)

16.—​Looney again delivered his right on the ribs. Bendigo bored him to the ropes, and Looney got down.

17.—​Looney put in two smart hits on the left ear, and one on the ribs. Bendigo dropped on his knees.

18.—​Bendigo pressed Looney on the ropes, held him for some time in a helpless position, and gave it him severely in the face, the claret flowing copiously. He was lowered to the earth by a little stratagem on the part of his seconds.

19.—​Notwithstanding the loss of blood in the last round, Looney was lively to the call, went up to his man, and knocked him through the ropes with a body blow.
