The two endured a tumultuous relationship that was marked by his long trips away from home and her reluctance to give up her way of life. At nineteen, Dempsey was struggling to provide for his wife and continuing to dream of fame and fortune. In San Francisco, he met the flamboyant manager that would help him take the next step. John Leo McKernan, known as "Doc" Kearns, had been a welterweight fighter, minor league ballplayer, faro dealer, bouncer and bartender before he settled in as a fight manager. His flashy style—including jewelry and strong cologne—clashed with Dempsey's. Ultimately, though, the match would be fruitful. Kearns got the fights and Dempsey the knockouts. In the spring of 1917, they began a string of fights that would pave the way to his first title fight. YOU SEE THIS REFERS TO HER AS 15 YRS OLDER THAN HIM... SHE MAY WELL BE ADELINE'S DAUGHTER...MAYBE THEY DISOWNED HER I DONT KNOW...DEPENDS ON WHO IS TELLING THE STORY I GUESS GEEZZZ WHAT A MESS! GOOD LUCK CONNIE Notify Administrator about this message?
