Prof. A. M. Deyoe, superintendent OF

elected to preside in this important of

.DuELING IS ANCIENT CUSTOM
Had Its Origin In the judicial Combat

Dueling in the proper sense Of the
word was handed down from the early
Germans, Danes and Franks, all Of
whom carried the practice of the
judicial combat to such an extreme
that only women, sick persons, Grip
pies and men more than 60 years old
were exempt from 1t. The judicial
combat was especially authorized by
Gundebald, king Of the Burgundians.
as early at SOL A. D.
Finally the practice Of dueling was
carried into France, where 1t soon be-
came SO common that it is estimated
that 5000 persons fell in mortal COM
bat in the ter years Of the reign Of
Henry w.
Single combats are said to have
been introduced in England by the
Normans. During the period Of
chivalry in that country they we're in
common practice, but in the strict IN
depreciation of the word they could
not be called duels. In the literal
sense Of the word, the duel was intro.
duced in England about the time that
the practice became prevalent in
France.
Dueling began in this country in
the early days of its settlement In
fact, the code of honor was brought
to the new world by the first settlers.
The first encounter of this kind took
place at Plymouth, Mass, in 1921, two
OF the settlers deciding a question OF
honor with the heavy swords that
were carried in those days.
