Thanks. He lost the championship April 5, 1915, to Jess Willard. This letter is dated October 15, 1915.
On November 25, 1920 (according to his wiki), he fought the 'baseball' Jack Johnson (who I am still researching) in Leavenworth, Kansas. There is some debate over the exact date or if the fight even took place.
Maybe Adam knows?
