Description
Select... Rather than the 15 rounds promised on this card, the fight lasted only a few seconds. In the middle of the first round, Liston was felled by a punch that the crowd didn't see, and Ali was unsure if it had connected. There were allegations of match-fixing by Liston, but these were never proven. The match did result in a celebrated photo of an angry Ali standing over the fallen Liston, exhorting him to get up and fight.

The card belonged to Paul Labbé, himself a known local boxer, who was to serve as an additional judge for the match. Sonny Liston became world heavyweight champion in 1962. The first match between Liston and Clay in February of 1964 was highly anticipated, with Liston the favorite to win. However, Clay won when Liston forfeited due to an injury - the first time a heavyweight championship fight had been forfeited since 1919. The controvesial nature of Clay's win led the World Boxing Council to seek a re-match, and the Boston Garden was originally chosen, but pulled out due to licensing concerns. The Central Maine Youth Arena (formerly St Dominic's Arena) in Lewiston, Maine, was selected as the venue - one of the smallest ever to host a heavyweight championship. Muhammed Ali had already changed his name from Cassius Clay by the time this match was scheduled, but promoters billed it as the "Clay-Liston" fight nonetheless. Rather than the 15 rounds promised on this card, the fight lasted only a few seconds. In the middle of the first round, Liston was felled by a punch that the crowd didn't see, and Ali was unsure if it had connected. There were allegations of match-fixing by Liston, but these were never proven. The match did result in a celebrated photo of an angry Ali standing over the fallen Liston, exhorting him to get up and fight. 1909 letter from Napoleon Sansoucy and Corinne (Harpin) Sansoucy, Southbridge, MA, to their daughters Antoinette and Anne Marie, who remained in Canada.

Poem by Henri d'Arles printed on Japanese vellum with painted decorations and signed by Chloe E. Richards. September 17, 1890 letter from Joseph Jobin to his daughter Anne-Marie, who remained in Saint Augustin parish, Quebec. The parchment contains a commission signed by Louis XIV appointing Charles de St-Étienne de la Tour governor and lieutenant-general of Acadia. The parchment still has a wax seal (no longer legible) attached by what appear to be silk threads.
This commission was issued by Louis XIV, King of France, in 1651. It not only appoints Charles de Saint-Étienne de la Tour governor and lieutenant-general of the French colony of Acadia, but more importantly it confirms an earlier appointment for those positions made by Louis XVI’s father, Louis XIII, in 1631. It also exonerates La Tour for his actions during the civil strife in Acadia between 1635 and 1645, and it goes further to criticize La Tour’s rival d’Aulnay for having prevented La Tour from exercising his lawful authority by favoring “enemies and accusations and suppositions that were not able to be verified and of which the said Saint-Étienne was absolved on the sixteenth of February last” (nine days prior to the issuance of the commission).
