Anyone got access to the New York Times of 1912. I am looking for a couple of Alex Lafferty bouts. 16th March 1912, against Charley Goodwin which was a return for their draw on Thanksgiving day.
Can anyone help?

Kevin,
All I could find in the New York Times was that after Alex Lafferty posted his $25 forfeit fee he was ask to sell 50 tickets (.50 each) prior to the match by the American A.A. Boxing Club. When he and his friends showed up at the club they found the doors locked.
Lafferty then complained to the Boxing Commisson and was refunded his
$25 forfeit fee a week later.
