Bogardus having now held the badge over two 

 years, it became his property. He put it up 

 again under the rules which are inserted hereafter. 

 John J. Kleinman, of Chicago, entered to contend 

 for it, and Bogardus and he shot at Joliet on 

 the twentieth of March, when Bogardus won. It 

 remains with Bogardus, and will be open to chal- 

 lenge up to twentieth of March, 1876. 



The scores of a few of my best matches, other 

 than for the championship, are given below, and 

 also some of my time matches : 



Bogardus against King at Chicago, Dexter Park, 

 1869, single birds, fifty each, and fifty pairs of 

 double birds each, §1,000 a side, twenty -one 

 yards rise. This was the first match in which 

 Bogardus shot with a breech-loader. It was one 

 of the best scores ho ever made, all at 21 yards.
