AN AFFAIR OF HONOR THAT DID Nor
COME OFF-THE DUELL1STs ARRESTED
The streets were rife with o rumor Friday
night that duel was to be fought near this
city Saturday morning, but the police, get
ting wind Of the affair, proceeded at
once to arrest the reported principles, who
were DR.. w. G. Wickens, clerk at the Spots
wood, and Mr.. T. B. Baker, clerk in the
Quartermaster's Department. They were
carried before magistrate, and were bailed
to appear before the Mayor; and on Satur-
day morning, instead of vending their; way
to the field Of " honor" ~ they, made their
appearance in the police court. Colonel
Davis and Mr.. Curtis were called as wit
nesses, but they seemed to- know nothing of
the affair. The Mayor then'asked Mr.. Ba-
ker if he contemplated having any further
difficulty with DR.. Wickens, and said if, he
did not he would let both 60 on their own
recognizance. Mr.. Baker, said he had "tno-
thing to say" : = = =
Mr.. J. c. Glare was then called to the
stand. He testified that Mr.. Baker gave
him q challenge directed to DR.. Wickens,
which he semitic him, and received an an
swer accepting it. r. -as@aT
Mayor: When were they to fight, and
with what kind of weapons ?.
Mr.. Clare To-day with double barrel
shot-guns.
The Mayor then required the accused to
give security in the sum of 1000 each to
keep the peace for twelve months. Mr..
Clare went security for Mr.. Baker and
Colonel Davis for DR.. Wickins. ..-,.,,..,-
The affair is said to have had its origin
in remark made by DR.. Wickins in which
he used Mr.. Bakers name in connection
with that of certain young lady who was
in Richmond week or two ago, and by
which Mr.. Baker felt himself aggireved.
