1t is rather pity for the gayety OF
nations that French men of letters can
not fight their duels as duels are fought
in Greenland. In Greenland when one
man has been insulted by another the
adversaries each compose satire in
verse. This each man recites TO his
household until the servants and the
women know it by heart. Then place
OF meeting is appointed. The two men
the insulter and insulted, the offender
and offended stand face to face, and
each recites his poem. His friends and
servants form a chorus. Each man
tries hard to raise the laugh against his
adversary. Each man speaks i'm turn,
whipping the enemy with epigram and
quip, and after two hours of this wordy
battle the meeting gives the victory to
him of the two adversaries who has

cording to the report of the land Office
