*Now, gentlemen, the rules of this meeting are the same as usual. The compeeters (competitors) must abide by the decision of the judges. The sticklers are very qualified men.. There shall be no "faggoting," and any person found making use of bad language, shall be banded to the police. The committee cannot hold themselves responsible for any injury suffered by the "compeeters.”
He withdraws, and the three "sticklera" enter the ring. The are referees, each armed with a stick, and their duty le to walk around the wrestlers, tap their legs in the event of fouling and also to act: as judges.
No "faggoting" means-no prearrange-
ments of winners among the com petitors before the match.
The first pair step into the enclosure. They are barefooted.
despite the stubble and stones, and stripped to the waist. They each don a rough, loosely fitting linen jacket, beldi together in front. by just one piece of string. The jacket chables a hold to be obtained. Each grasps his jacket with the left hand, wraps it around him, and then they Crouch" and for a few seconds manœuvre for a hitch..
A right hand shoots out, a firm grip is obtained and, holding away from one another, they get both. hands to work. When strength and skill are combined it is no easy matter to throw a man cleanly so that both shoulders simultaneously strike the 'ground' as is required by the Cornish style.. Several times a mar goes down, but the sticklers decide it to be a no throw" and the bout is resumed.
When the champion appeared in the first round there was a hum of excitement. "Yere's the rale thing. Now you'll see some wrastlin'." He gripped with a hold of steel, ran_his. man forward, then with a quick change of grip, rushed him back. wards and sent him down with a crash on both shoulders. No wonder the master of ceremonies added the clause as to injury to the com petitors 1
In every round he was matched against a bigger and heavier man and yet such were his skill and strength that 20 seconds sufficed him to dispose of each of them.
The final arrives and brings "the -champion-against a young giant magnificently muscled and standing, inches above him.
He goes in straight for his man, reminding one of Carpentier, and gets a firm hitch. He is pulled for- ward yards, seems dh the point of losing his balance, and then, with every muscle in his body braced, he heaves the big man off his feet, holds. him in his arms well off the ground, and by a deft muscular effort breaks all resistance; then by a quick-move- ment turns him and lays him on the ground as gently as he would a babe. There is a great revival of this fine sport in Cornwall, and no wonder, for, far from being tedious it is so spectacular that we travelled miles to see the champion in another en- counter.
