Through the rest of the bout Johnson landed heavy body and face blows, but they apparently did no injury, as the Boston boy came up laughing.<br /> <br /> In the sixth round Johnson floored his man. The spectators yelled for Johnson, but Referee William Duke decided the go a draw.<br /> <br /> The battle royal which followed was a laughable affair, and was between little Henry Mason, (Pocahontas,) Isaac Fireall, Burk Brown and Samuel Young, all colored. In the third round Young quit, after getting a heavy body blow. At the end of the fifth round the bout was given to Mason, he having succeeded in punching both his opponents out of the ring.<br /> <br /> &lt;i&gt;--The Sun, 1895-03-26.&lt;/i&gt;</div>
