with a beautiful lady, at whose house he

gentleman, (a good looking person) was al
so enamored of this same lady, and his sui
was favored while the ugly gentleman was
cast off. The latter challenged The former
to mortal combat and they met with sabres
in their hands to fight duel. The ugly

adversary of his life, at last aimed desper-
