STEVENSON has left us. The news arrived sometime after four in the afternoon yesterday. No other amateur boxer shone so brightly in the history of this sport. He could have obtained two additional Olympic titles if it had not been for duties that internationalist principles imposed on the Revolution.
Not all the money in the world would have bribed Stevenson.
Eternal glory to his memory!
