23.—Orme pursued Langham, determined not to allow him to recover his wind; hard, but rather wild hitting, during which Orme getting close, sent Langham down.
24.—Nat missed his left, Orme stepping back; Orme put out his tongue. Exchanges, and Langham fell.
25.—Langham hit Orme several times as he came in, but could not stop himself from being bored down.
26.—Langham tried his left twice, but was not near enough to his man. Orme let go his left, and Langham dropped. (An appeal from Orme on the plea that Langham dropped without a blow.)
27.—Heavy counters; Orme on Langham’s jowl; Langham on Orme’s eye, which was nearly shut up. A rattling round. Nat got on Orme’s best eye (the right), then on his note. Orme hammered away, but was short of distance, except when in-fighting; a close, and Langham under. (One hour.)
28, 29.—Exchanges; Langham precise, and timing his hits, got Orme to a standstill. When Orme came on again Langham fell. (Another claim.)
30, 31.—As before, Langham slipped down in the hitting. (A claim each round for Orme.)
32.—Orme wild and rushing; Langham steadied himself, and propped him severely. Langham fell at the ropes, Orme over him.
33, 34.—Langham delivered and fell from his own blows.
35.—Hard hitting; Orme would not be denied; Langham got down at the ropes, and Orme, bending his knee, tried to drop on him. (An appeal from Langham’s party, but overruled.)
