Complete Boxer #244639

"My Dear Mr. Lynch,<br><br>"I have read with the greatest interest what to me is the finest description of the origin of Boxing that I have ever heard or read, and I offer you my humble compliments on the most thorough and historic résumé I imagine has ever been produced.<br><br>"Your description of the origin and purposes of Boxing is of itself interesting and instructive, and accurate to a degree. Coming to the General Hints, I have read and re-read them, and I am not master enough of the English language to find a word that could convey a high enough estimate of the whole of the practical advice, and they show a masterly knowledge of all that happens in the ring.<br><br>"The Cardinal Blows and Counter Blows are most accurately described, and anyone who follows your instructions accurately must derive the greatest possible advantage, not to say instruction.
