The Brooklyn Eagle says Hon. John Foley
counsel for DIR. Phelps, is authority for the fol-
lowing account of the duel Upon arriving at the
spot selected it was resolved that lots be drawn
for the privilege of firing the first shot, it having
been agreed they were not to fire smu ltaneously
May won the privilege of firing first lie took
aim at Bennett, but the cap of his pistol snapped
and the bullet was not discharged. This, howev-
ef, accordingly exhausted his privilege, and it be-
came BENEFITS right to fire. Instead Of aiming at
his ady efsaly Bennett pointed his pistol toward
the sky and discharged 1t. Both men walked to-
ward each other and shock hands, and declared
themselves satisfied. The parties then left the
field. May Is absenting himself from this State,
