Ensign Browne was a promising young officer, of a very respectable family in Ireland, and had only just attained his seventeenth year. He and Lieutenant Butler belonged, lately, to the same regiment; but from a serious disagreement which took place between them, the Commander-in-chief ordered them to be placed in different corps. On their meeting at Nottingham, however, the embers of animosity rekindled, and the unhappy result has proved the loss to society of a valuable and much respected young member. BETWEEN MAJOR BROOKES AND COLONEL BOLTON. January 4, 1806. About a year ago a duel was to have taken place at Liverpool, between Major Brookes and Colonel Bolton, in consequence of a quarrel; but the affair being known, they were bound over to keep the peace for one year. After this, the animosity between them increased daily, and each reproached the other with having informed the officers of justice of their intention to fight. The time for which they were bound over to keep the peace elapsed on Friday week, when a challenge passed, and an immediate meeting was determined upon. They met, and at the first fire Major Brookes was killed on the spot. The Colonel absconded. BETWEEN LIEUT. TURRENS AND MR. FISHER. March 22, 1806. A duel was fought on Galleywood Common, near Chelmsford, Essex, between Lieutenant Turrens and Mr. Fisher, both of the 6th regiment of Foot, in barracks there. The parties with their seconds arrived on the spot appointed for the encounter at daybreak, when the preliminaries having been settled, they took a short distance, and turning round, fired at the same instant. The Lieutenant received his antagonist’s ball in the groin, and immediately fell. On which Mr. Fisher went up and took him by the hand, expressing much regret at the lamentable consequence that had ensued, as, from the nature of the wound, he was apprehensive it would prove mortal. Assistance having been procured, the wounded gentleman was removed to a windmill at a short distance, and as soon as possible, conveyed from thence to his apartments in the barracks, where every attention was rendered that his unfortunate situation could require. The ball having lodged on the side opposite to which it entered, was extracted by Dr. Welch, at four o’clock the same afternoon, but he expired between nine and ten o’clock on Sunday morning. An inquisition was taken by J. O. Parker, jun., Esq., coroner, on view of the body, on Monday, and a verdict returned of “wilful murder” against Mr. Fisher and the two seconds, one of whom is under arrest. Mr. Fisher and the other have absconded. BETWEEN MR. ROGERS AND MR. LONG. Dublin, May 3, 1806. This day a duel was fought in Foster Avenue, between two young gentlemen of the Barrack-office, in this city, and intimate friends, upon occasion of a tavern quarrel the preceding evening.
