A duel was fought on Tuesday morning, at daybreak, in a field, about a mile and a half from Totteridge, between two gentlemen, who had alighted from post-chaises, at the King’s Arms public-house, near the spot. In an hour after one of the parties was brought in mortally wounded in the abdomen, and he died in four hours after. An inquest was held, and the fact of the duel being proved by some husbandmen, a verdict of “wilful murder” was returned. The body was owned after the inquest. The deceased was a Mr. Harrison, a young man about twenty-two years of age. BETWEEN LIEUT. STEWART AND LIEUT. BAGNALL. October 7, 1812. A fatal duel took place on South Sea Common, near Portsmouth. The parties were Lieutenant Stewart and Lieutenant Bagnall, of the Royal Marines, most intimate friends. The quarrel arose concerning a female, with whom both were intimate. At the first shot Lieutenant Stewart’s pistol missed fire. At the second discharge, his ball entered behind Lieutenant Bagnall’s right shoulder. Every attention was instantly procured, but the wounded man expired on Saturday evening. BETWEEN LIEUT. BLUNDELL AND MR. MAGUIRE. July 12, 1813. A duel was fought yesterday at Carisbrook Castle, Isle of Wight, at half-past two o’clock, P.M. _agreeably to the written challenge of Lieut. Blundell_, between that gentleman and Mr. Maguire, when at the second discharge of pistols, Mr. B—— received a mortal wound, of which he died two days after. BETWEEN MR. O’CONNELL AND MR. D’ESTERRE. February, 1815. The following account is from the Freeman’s Journal of the 2nd of February:— A difference was adjusted yesterday, at Bishop’s Court, county Kildare, which had agitated this city for several days. At a meeting at Capel-street, on the Saturday previous to the late Aggregate Meeting, Mr. O’Connell attended; and in illustrating some matter which he was anxious to enforce, he alluded, in a contemptuous manner, to the Corporation of Dublin. “The beggarly Corporation of Dublin” was, it seems, one of the epithets of scorn used in reprobation of this act. Mr. J. N. D’Esterre is a member of the Corporation; and having seen this phrase, he addressed a letter on the 25th (the day after the Aggregate Meeting) to Mr. O’Connell requiring to know whether he was fairly reported. On the day after Mr. O’Connell sent an answer, in which he said he would not avow nor disavow what had been reported in the newspapers. But he added, that if Mr. D’Esterre wrote to him to know his opinion of the Common Council of Dublin, as a body, he could easily satisfy him by saying, that no expression which language could furnish was sufficient to convey the sentiments of contempt he had for that body. Mr. O’Connell, besides, requested that Mr. D’Esterre should consider his answer as forming the close of the epistolary correspondence on this topic.
