WILKES' SPIRIT OF THE TIMES, New York, NY, January 25, 1862.

* Boxing

Page five of this issue includes a rather lengthy article concerning boxing entitled:  "Great Fight...Between Rob Brettle and Jack Rooke".

Another article found within this issue and entitled: "Our Chess Department" includes a "problem of the week" and the answer to the previous weeks' problem.

This 16 page issue also includes some Civil War reports as well as other sports items, including billiards and horse racing.  Although this issue is in nice condition, some small spots of purple ink-staining can be found on the front page, in addition to several tears throughout.
