The Duel Between Tom Porter and
Dir Henry BeIIasis.

ne Duel Between toW FoTesF auo
Dir Henry BeIlasis.
Some Of the royalists who were
forced to endure the English common
wealth seemed to console themselves
for the dullness Of life under a Puritan
government by fighting as many duels
as they could compass, so that ignobie
squabbles and foolish plots make up
the history OF their days.
Tom Porter was Of family which
had zealously served the king. Under
the new government his occupation was
gone, and he descended to tiviality
of life which finally involved him in a
most pathetic event. This was duel
which he fought with his friend, Sir
Henry Bellasis, and which, says Pepys
In his "Diary," is worth remembering
for "the Stiffness of the quarrel, ass q
kind of emblem of the general COM
plexion of the whole kingdom
But, silly as the quarrel undoubtedly
was, 1t carried in 1t 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 a 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 Por-
ter, kissed and bade him fly.
For" said he. tom, thou hast hurt
me, but will make shift to stand upon
my legs till thou mayest 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, ut Is plktty to see how the
world do talk Of them as a couple of
fools that killed one another out OF

officials of that road AVE been cons
sidcrfng the matter of suitable routes

on this as the best one for several
reasons.
Starting from a point near Pro-
gresso the line could be built into
this place with little expense, and
light grades. aside from perhaps a
short distance crossing the divide,
which would be no heavier than tho
hill at Camelcon on the present route.
Again the route by Corona and down
the Gallo would run through ~" 70
the richest regions in New Mexico, n
would guarantee the road good local
business in both passengers and

other great ADVANTAGE Is the water

ance Of good water for stcaming pur-
poses. which would be a general adj
vantage over the route from Tor
rance. which runs across the dry mesa
for miles and would furnish neither
water nor patronage of any kind.
The date of beginning on the eNlcn-
sion has not yet been given out pub

officials of the road are making every
provision for It's construction al an
