The negro took four out <,f the first six rounds. Tnen lie cased off suspiciously. In the fourteenth round however Hall was stung into a vicious attack. He then had Purdy going, hut lie failed to follow it up in the fifteenth round. The verdict for Purdy was loudly cheered, despite Hall s disappointing display.
