PATRON
OF
MANY
SPORTS
On
his
golden
wedding
day
In
June
of
1928
(his
wife
died
three
years
ago),
Lord
Lonsdale
was
presented
with
an
eight-panel
led
gold
casket.
On
the
panels
were
represented
In
relief
the
eight
sports
in
which
he
had
excelled
hunting,
flat
racing,
steeplechaslng,
boxing,
coursing,
shooting,
deer-stalking
and
yachting.
Part
of
the
secret
of
Lord
Lonsdale's
popularity
was
that
3s
a
youth
he
excelled
In
most
of
the
sports
of
which
later
he
became
a-
patron.
World
champion
John
L.
Sullivan
used
to
slam
the
bar
counter
and
roar
"I
can
lick
any
man
In
the
world."
The
then
Hon.
Cecil
Lowther
accepted
Uic
challenge
under
an
assumed
name.
The
great
John
L.

rounds.
Then
he
was
knocked

by
the
