Exact date & result unknown.

"About three years ago Farmer came to us as a 'Masked Marvel.'

"He was under the management of a chap Sam Howard who called himself 'Gold Tooth Sam.'

"'Gold Tooth' was a very mysterious chap. He kept his 'Marvel' hidden away until the night he was to give a tryout for the newspapermen.

"The 'Marvel,' who later it was discovered was Farmer, went on with a fellow named George Pappas, a tough Greek with little knowledge of boxing.

"Farmer did well until the mask he was wearing slipped down over his eyes so he could not see.

"Pappas took advantage of the situation and almost punched the Marvel's head off before he could get his mask adjusted."
