John Kelley, owner ot herd of coo, were
driving in company from Arizona east
North OF Trinidad, on the plains the two
herds were separated, Howard to follow the
Santa Fe trail TO Kansas City, Kelley
to drive north TO Denver. On the
route accidental exchanges had bsen
made, and Howard insisted ON having
bis stock out, but was unwilling to deliver
keeley's, and it wac finally agreed TO settle
the matter by battle between six picked
men from each side. Accordingly twelve
men ranged Themselves on horseback, the
two sides being fifty feet apart, and at zig
nal from the employers the fight began. At
the hrss nre Tour men were Instantly killed.
George Lester, of Keeiey's party, was shot
through the breast. One Of Towards
men fell with bullet through
the head, and two Others of the
same party were shot through the heart.
Dismayed, the Howard party. with the ex-
ception of their employer, fed the camp.
Keelsy then rode up to Howard and pro-
posed that they fight it out. Howard de-
clined, saying he understood that the matter
was settled according TO ths terms of the bat
tie made beforehand. This settled the mat
ter. An equitable exchange of the mixed
cattle was then made, the dead buried by the
other men of both herds, and the drovers and
those in charge separated for their different
