THE nlNe.


From the Richmond Enquirer, June "A.
Apugistlc encounter took place yesterday between
two well known characters Of Jefferson ward-Pat
Lee and Jack wrenn. The hight Il seems, originated
at the York river depot the evening previous owing
to some words which passed between the parties OF
very unpleasant nature. One OF the parties, con.
siderng himself aggreved, sent challenge, which
was promptly accepted, with the understanding that
the matter should be settled In accordance Win
the rules of the prize ring. The friends
OF each party were selected, who made
all the preliminary arrangements having
chosen q spot on the south side OF James river,
beyond the reach OF the city authoritfes-Pat Lee
being accompanied by William Peasley and John
Finn, and Jack Wrenn by his brother Dan Wrenn,
and Robert II. Allen. After reaching the spot Sc
lected for the combat they were prepared Tor the
fight by their respective seconds, and time being
called by Mr.. william Holmes, who acted as referee
they came up 10 the scratch and went at their WORK
in good earnest, anddought for considerable lcnRth
Of time At the close OF the seventeenth round
wrenns second threw up the sponge, and Lee was
declared the victor. All hands then returned TO the
city, apparently on the most friendly terms. Very
little damage done to the "mug OF either party.
Lee won the fight by giving his opponent assertes OF
heavy blows In the body.
