The fight between Roy EARLE & Len FAY was over a disputed bet whilst playing the illegal game of two-up known as Swy. After two fights when EARLE needed stitches on both sides of his jaw, he challenged FAY to 15 two minute rounds. Although supposed to be a private affair a crowd of 6,000 gathered on rough ground behind the Fire Station. The local crowd was swelled by carloads from Victorian country towns. Bets at times up to three hundred pounds were placed allegedly 'always between friends'. By the end of 15 rounds both fighters had collapsed and had to be lifted apart by their seconds. Although FAY was declared the winner on points, EARLE wanted a return fight. Single sheet of A4 paper copied from a 1950 edition of the Truth Newspaper. Missing the first five words of the headline, is - Fight over Swy Dispute.

This book was a prize awarded to Miss Middleton, a pupil at Ormiston House College, East Melbourne in 1887. The Principals of the school were the Misses Singleton and their father, Dr John Singleton was a practising doctor in Warrnambool from 1860 to 1865. He had an important influence on Warrnambool, establishing several Total Abstinence Societies and campaigning for improved health conditions for pastoral workers in the district and the aborigines at Framlingham. In Melbourne Dr Singleton and his wife worked tirelessly for the underprivileged. He established many institutions for the less fortunate, including the Prisoners’ Aid Society, the Children’s Hospital, lending libraries, cottages for widows, shelters for homeless men and women, a society for the protection of animals and the Collingwood Free Medical Dispensary. He died in 1891 at Ormiston House, his daughters’ school and home. It is not known which of the Singleton daughters ran the school and no information has been found on Miss Middleton. This book is of considerable interest as it has a close connection to Dr John Singleton, important not only in the social history of Melbourne but also in the history of Warrnambool. This is a hard cover book of 160 pages with 16 pages at the back of the book of advertisements for other books published by the Religious Tract Society. The cover is brown with a sketch of a young man and lettering in gold and an ornamental floral pattern on the front cover. The gold lettering and the ornamental floral pattern are also on the spine. The book has 13 chapters with ornamental scrolls and initials at the beginning and end of each chapter. There are also some full page black and white sketches in the book, with the one at the front of the book covered by a piece of tissue paper. The book plate at the front of the book is white with a gold border pasted onto the page and handwritten details have been added in black ink.
