This day a duel was fought, near Grosvenor-gate, between the Right Hon. the Earl of A——, of the kingdom of Ireland, and Mr. F—— M——, of the same kingdom. The affair happened from a punctilio of honour. After they had taken their ground, both attempted to fire at the same time; but his Lordship’s pistol missing fire, and Mr. M——’s shot not taking effect, the affair ended satisfactorily. BETWEEN COMTE DE GERSDORFF AND MONS. L. LE FAVRE. July, 1785. A challenge was circulated through Europe by the public prints, from Comte de Gersdorff to Mons. Louis Le Favre; the former of whom offered a hundred louis d’ors to the latter, to bear his charges to any place which he might appoint for the meeting. To this challenge Mons. Le Favre afterwards published the following answer:— “MONS. LE COMTE, ”Filbourg, April 28, 1785. “I hasten to answer your circular letter inserted in the public prints. Our interview, if you think proper, shall be at B—— le D——. As I am in the neighbourhood of the city, I do not want much money to carry me thither; and I thank you sincerely for the hundred louis which you offer me. “I have the honour to be, &c., Le Favre.” The Comte in his replication pleads indisposition. But the parties at length met; and there never was such a farce of a fight. Their seconds measured the ground at twenty-five paces. The heroes took their stations, and fired a pistol or two each. Their seconds commended their bravery: the Comte forgave the Secretary, and there was an end of the combat. BETWEEN LORD W. MURRAY AND MR. G. WAUGH. November, 1785. By the East India packet, advice was received of a duel fought between Lord William Murray, and Lieutenant Gilbert Waugh, of the 73rd Regiment, on the 21st of October, 1784, in which the latter was mortally wounded, and died three days after, greatly regretted. BETWEEN LIEUT. GAMBLE AND LIEUT. MOLLISON. January, 1786. A duel was fought at Chatham Lines, between Lieutenant Gamble and Lieutenant Mollison, both of them of the Marines. No compromise could be arranged by the seconds, and Lieutenant Mollison firing first, hit his antagonist in the upper part of his thigh. Lieutenant Gamble fell, but suddenly starting up, as Mr. Mollison advanced towards him, discharged his pistol, and the ball shattered the humerus or upper bone of Mr. Mollison’s arm, a little above the elbow. Here the seconds interposed, and the combatants were taken into their quarters. Mr. Mollison’s arm has since been amputated, and both the gentlemen are now perfectly reconciled, and as good friends as ever. BETWEEN LORD MACARTNEY AND MAJOR-GEN. STEWART. June 8, 1786.
