A SILLY TRAGEDY.
The Duel Between Tom Porter and
Sir Henry BeIlasfs.

Sir Henry BeIlasfs.
Some OF the Royalists who were
forced to endure tie English common
wealth seemed TO console themselves
for the dizziness of life under Puritan
government b. fighting as many duels
as they cous5 compass, so that ignoble
sq:abbles and foolish plots make up the
history of their days.
Tom Porter was of a family which
had zealOusly served the king. Under
the new government his occupation was
gone, and he descended to a triviality
of life which finally involved him in a
most pathetic event. This was a duel
which he fought with his friend, Sir
Henry Bellasis, and which, says Pepys
in his Diary is worth remem bering
for 1.-THE Stiffness of the quarrel = a
kind of emblem of the general complex
ion of the whole kingdom
But silly az the quarrel undoubtedly
was it carried il it an element Of heart
break
The two young men involved were
intimate friends and companions, but
one day, "being merry in company"
Tom Porter said he should like to see
the man in England who would dare
give him blow. With that Sir Henry
Bellasis struck him a box on the ear.
The inevitable duel followed, wherein
each was wounded. Sir Henry proved to
be seriously hurt, SO he called Porter,
kissed him and babe him fly.
"For," said he, 'Tom, thou hast
hurt me. But will make shift to stand
upon my legs till thou mayst withdraw,
for would not have thee troubled for
what thou hast DONE
Porter profted by his friends gener-
osity and escaped to France. Sir Henry
died few days later, and Pepys con-
cludes, cit is pretty to see how the
world do talk of them as a couple OF
fools that killed one another out of
love-"
