A DUEL NOT FOUGHT.
Continued from Ninth Page.)

Merryman replied in a note that he denied
Whiteside's right to dictate time and place.
but that he (Merryman) would waive the
question of time and meet him at Louisi-
ana. Mo. Upon my presenting this note
to Whiteside and stating verbally its con-
tents he declined receiving it, saying he
had business in st. Louis and it was as
near as louisiana Merryman then direct
ed me to notify Whitesde that he should
publish the correspondence between them.
with such comments as he saw fit. This l
did. Thus it stood at bed time last night
This morning Whiteside, by his friend
Shields. is praying for a new trial, on the
ground that ne was mistaken in Merry
mans proposition to meet him at Louisi-
ana Mo-, thinking it was the state Of
Louisiana. This Merryman boots at, and is
preparing his publication, while the town is
in a ferment and a street fight somewhat
anticipated.
Yours, forever, LINCOLN"
Peace Restored.
Ultimately there was a rift in that black,
portentous and surcharged storm cloud.
Through that rift came a single ray of
light and peace. 1t was whispered softly at
first, then louder and stronger, among the
friends of the beligerents. that the more
insulting portion of the Lost Townships"
correspondence was written, not by Lin
coin, but by the ladies, and that Lincoln
was the defender of female honor. When
this view of the case reached Shields, his
high sense of honor was touched, and he at
once declared the whole game off, as he
would not fight man who stood for the
honor of the ladies' The dogs of war at
once hunted their holes, and the mad bill
lows of rage in Springfield society gave
place to the calm of May morning on an
inland lake. And here ends my story. The
later fame of the great men and characters
mentioned is in every school history and
need not be here repeated. The glorious
men. whose career of fame began in my
native state, are thickly appearing in Stat
uary Hall. Already we have Lincoln,
Shields and Baker, each of whom began his
career of grandeur in the thirties and for
ties, in Illinois. Lincoln led company of
patriots to fame during the Black Hawk
war. They shed their first blood fighting
mosquitoes and capturing blackberries on
the Wisconsin and Bad Axe rivers, near the
northern line of the state. Shields led a
brigade from Illinois to Mexico in 1S46 and
returned bearing honorable wounds and
covered with glory. His trumphal speech
In the old state house on his return, and the
loud and prolonged plaudits which 1t elicit
ed, still sound in my ears as on the day
heard them. Baker went to Mexico at the
head of an Illinois regiment. His return
was triumph, and he received a we'll
merited ovation.
Yes, Illinois is richly represented in Stat
uary Hall. but not beyond her merits. For
l understand another son, Lieut.. Gen. u. s.
Grant, is still to come. These sons of Illi-
nois are also the sons of the nation now.
