After this bout ended, a local judge handed Martin a card, requesting that the boxer come see him the following day. Martin did as requested, out of curiosity. The judge told Martin that people in Aberdeen admired clean and honest boxers such as Martin was, and immediately had him fitted for a $50.00 suit of clothes -- paid by the jurist, which was soon-after shipped to Martin. Meanwhile, the referee of this bout, "Honest" Jim Arnold, a boxer himself, who had been training for a comeback, reportedly broke a blood vessel during or soon after this bout, and died Sept. 15 at St. Joseph's Hospital.
