j A History of the Life of John L. Sullivan
JB (By H. C. Hamilton, United Press Staff Correspondent) •
X (Copyright, 1918, by United Press) 1
CHAPTER XXVII
When Sullivan died he left just his
sister as a blood-relative to mourn his
death, but he left an adopted son, a
little fellow whose heart was broken
when the big man who had befriended
him suddenly lay dow and went away
one afternoon.
Sullivan had been married twice, the
first time to Miss Annie Bates of
Centreville, R. I„ in 1882. They lived
together only eighteen months and
then separated, Sullivan obtaining a
divorce on the ground of desertion in
1908.
The second wife was Miss Kate Har
kins, a boyhood sweetheart, who be
came Mrs. Sullivan after the fighter
had retired from the ring. They were
married in Boston Feb. 7, 1910. She
preceded him in death. She would
have married Sullivan when the form
er was a young man, she had been
known to say, if she could have per
suaded him to abandon his determina
tion to become a fighter.
And this is the story of John L. Sul
livan—the man who made fighting a
clean game in America, and who lifted
the game from the brutal days of
pickled, bared fists, to a scientific life
in six to eight-ounce gloves, and a
chance for a man to rest after fighting
three minutes. The Marquis of Queens,
bury rules probably would be waiting
yet for some one to champion them if
it hadn’t been for the efforts of Sulli
van to elevate the game that had given
him a fortune.
John L. Sullivan is dead, but it is
rarely said that he was anything but
an upright honest man, with a huge
heart that was open to every man.
Fighters, doctors, lawyers—men in all
walks of life—revere the memory of
the old gladiator, for he typified that
jewel in any man’s life—absolute hon
esty and fair play.
He lies in Old Calvary cemetery at
Boston, buried there from St. Paul's
church. He had a funeral fit for a
king. The church was packed to over
crowding. As in the days when his
saloons were struggling, the police
had to be called to make a path for his
last trip. The streets near the house,
and the church were packed with ad
miring and curious folk. His popular
ity remained with him after death. As
the body of Sullivan passed along the
streets to the cemetery bells in fire
houses tolled and curtains were
drawn.
There never was a fighter who had
the following of this grand old man of
the ring. Perhaps there ever will be
another.

CHIHUAHUA CITY, Mexico, April
2.—Pneumonia did what Villa bullets
could not do in taking the life of
Captain S. Scobell, British vice con
sul who died here recently. Captain
Scobell acted as British vice consul
and represented the American gov
ernment here throughout the Villa ac
tivities in this state. Once a messen
ger was sent to his home from Villa’s
headquarters. When Captain Scobell
opened the door the man fired point
blank at him, having been ordered to
kill the acting American consul. Dur
ing the entire seven years of revolu
tion Captain Scobell remained at his
post. He was a former British re
serve officer and had a son in the
British army in France.

REMAINS FORMER SENATOR
FREEDING ARE BURIED
The remains of former Territorial
Senator Conrad Freeding were buried
recently at Nome. They had been
brought from their temporary resting
place in the frozen shaft near the
point where the body was found last i
spring, a short distance from Hot
Springs, in the Kougarok district. The
deceased lost his life in a fierce bliz
zard a little over a year ago while
making his way back to Taylor Creek
from the Serpentine Hot Springs,
whither he had gone with Mrs. Freed
ing, who was in ill health. On the
return journey, Freeding, who was
alone and traveling on skils, was over
taken by a blizzard and evidently wan
dered amid the blinding snows for
some time before being overwhelmed
by the cold. In addition to serving as
the senatorial representative from the
Second division in the first territorial
legislature, Freeding was at one time
mayor of Nome. His widow and young
daughter are residents of Nome.

LONDON, Feb. 25 (by mail).—“Why
is the working man in America so well
| under control?” asked Sir Johnston
I Forbes Robertson, actor, at a meet
ing here to support the work of the
Young Women’s Christian Associa
tion. “Because there the working man
is under the thumb of his wife.’
He added that in America the work
ing woman “is a highly intelligent
woman; and the consequence is that
Mr. Gompers is having practically no
trouble with the vast and powerful
unions all over America.
“Practically,” said Sir Johnston,
“America is a woman’s country and,
in my view, a jolly good job, too!
