48.—​Jones went to his man, who nailed him on the left ogle, and, as Jones persevered, he caught him heavily on the throat, and Jones fell.

49.—​Tom tried to lead off, but was short, and Jones returned heavily on the ribs with his right. He then attempted to close, but, on Sayers catching hold of him, he fell.

50.—​Tom tried his double, but Jones stopped him, and in getting away slipped down.

51.—​Slight exchanges; Jones on the mouth and Sayers on the nose, and Jones down.

52.—​Jones led off and was neatly stopped. Tom missed his return, and Jones fell forward.

53.—​Tom led off and got on Aaron’s blind eye. Jones returned very slightly on the nose, and fell.

54.—​Tom planted his left heavily on the mark, which led to mutual exchanges, and Jones fell.

55.—​Tom feinted and popped both hands slightly on Aaron’s good eye, which began to tell tales. Jones returned on the left ear, but it was too long a shot to do damage, and Sayers fell.

56.—​Aaron opened the ball, and planted his left and right on the nose and ear twice in succession. He then rushed in, when Tom stopped him by a straight one on the blind eye, and Jones down.

57.—​Jones again went to work, but Tom was too quick on his pins, and got out of harm’s way. Sayers missed his return, and Jones fell.
