nc DuBosc's Bridge as Defensiblo Even
Under the Code Of tho Duello.
EDGEFIELD, G. H., July l3, 1880.
! Messrs Rtoraam & Daacsoa,-DEAR
SlRs: want to say to you that you
have my hearty endorsement in the
position you have taken in reference
to the Cash Shannon tragedy. 1t no
reflection upon the memory of the
gallant gentlemen of the past who re.
sorted to the ducllo to settle their per-
sonal differences to ask that the law be
yindicotcd i'll this case. In former
days the most punctilious dccorum
and chiyalric courtesy distinguished,
ihc conduct OF gentlemen in "afiairs of
honour" and coarse ribaldry and gas
coNadc in correspondence were rs
odious as the brand Of cowartlicc; but
now the "swash-bucklcr style" appears
! to be fashionable.
The issue is very sharply made be-
