ROBERT CRITTENDEN's FIGHT WITH
GENERAL CONWAY.

Robert Crittenden, the brother of
Henry Crittenden. whose removal to
Arkansas l have mentioned, fought a
very remarkable duel about tho year
1880. He was canvassing the Territory
of Arkansas as a candidate for Delegate
to Compensation. Conway, the brother
of the subsequent Governor of the State
of that name. being his opponent. The
latter was jackson man." while Crit
tenden was "anti ackson," in the Do
litical nomenclature of that day. There
was an immense concourse of people in
attendance, and party feeling ran pref
ty high. The discu ssion became per-
sonal, and Crittenden at the close of his
second speech remarked that he ''trust-
ed no gentleman would utter such
words in the heat of debate toward him
as could not be tolerated by the code of
honor" Conway retOrted in torrent of
bitter invective and personal denuncia-
tiOns. Crittenden briefly and calmly
rejoined: Your language, General
Conway. admits Of only one answer,
and that, YOU may be sure, l will make
right speedily" A hostile message was
sent the same day, and the meeting ar
ranged for the following morning.
A vast throng had collected to witness
the duel, for there had been no attempt
made to conceal it. Ben Desha, son
of Governor Desha of Kentucky. was
Crittenden's second, and Colopel Whar-
ton Rector was the second of Conway.
There was some delay in settling the
preliminaries, at which General Conway
became impatient and excited. while
Crittenden remained perfectly cool,
stretched quietly ON blanket, with his
eyes closed as il he we're sleeping. Fin
ally the principals were called to their
positions. 1.-The spectator" says an
ego witness, "at glance contrasted
their aspect and bearing. Crittenden
inherited the noblest Of human forms,
with fair hair, blue eyes and a lofty
oountenance, frank and open in its ex-
preston and wearing the seal of death
defying bravery. He stood cool, col
lected and uncOncerned, like rifeman
about to fire at mark. But Conway
bad stern face, eyes dark as night and
his look Of indubitable courage was per-
ceptibly tinged with revenge.
TAT length Desha gave the word in a
voice that rang over the hills like the
peal Of trumpet: Fire! One-two-
threer At the sound Fire. Conway
raised his weapon and pulled the trig
ger. His bullet grazed Crittenden's
breast and cut q button of his coat
without more injnry. But Critteuden
waited until the last echo of the word
'Two,' and then his pistol exploded.
General Conway dropped to the earth
like lead. The ball had pierced his
heart. Commercial.
