HOW DUELING WAS STOPPED.

J, Cuthbeth Hadden is responsible
for the statement that dueling in the
Kentucky region came to an end some
80 years ago as the result of a ridic-
ulous affair that occurred as follows.
He tells the story in The Gentleman's
Magazine:
"At this time travelling prea cher
named Bowman-a strong, muscular
fellow-was conducting some services
in Kentucky. At one of his meetings
a wellknown desperate character Gre
ated a disturbance, and being publicly
rebuked by Bowman, sent him chal-
lenge to fight. Bowman, as the chal-
lenged party, had the choice OF weap.
ons. He selected a half-bushel OF
Irish potatoes, as big as his fist, for
each man, and stipulated that his
opponent must stand Is PAGES distant,
and that only one potato at time
should be taken from the measure.
The desperate was furious at being
thus freshly insulted, and made an in
dignant protest; but Bowman insisted
on his rights as the challenged man,
and threatened to denounce the des-
perado as a coward if he failed to
come to time. As there was no way
out of the fix but to fight, the desper-
ado consented. The encounter took
place on the outskirts of the town.
Almost everybody in the place was
present to see the fun. The seconds
arranged the two men in position, by
the side of each being half-bushel
measure filled with large, hard Irish
potatoes. Bowman threw the first
tuber; it struck his opponent, and
flew into pieces. A yell of delight
went up from the crowd, which fur
ried the desperado, and his potato
flew wide Of the mark. Bowman
watched his chance, and every time
his opponent stopped for potato,
another hit him in the side. The
desperate was struck about five times,
and then the sixth potato took him in
the short ribs, knocking the wind COM
pletely out of him, and doubling him
up on the grass. The people were
almost crazy with laughter, but Bow
man looked as sober as if he had just
been preaching a funeral sermon.
The desperate was taken home and
put to bed, and there he stayed for
more than week before he recovered
from the effects of his Irish potato
duel. That was the end of dueling in
the Kentucky region"
