Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Duels and Duelling: Alphabetically Arranged, With a Preliminary Historical Essay This page - the last to be written - is the author's own. Here he may speak to his reader without restraint, and, if he will, as to a friend. The writer, in availing himself of the privilege accorded to all, would remark, in the first place, that whoever opens this volume in the expectation of finding mention of every challenge given and of every duel fought, in the United States or elsewhere, will be disappointed. The work, in its claims as a record, is sufficiently moderate. Bred to active business, and employed nearly the whole of his life in commercial or kindred pursuits, the author's leisure hours only have been devoted to books. In order to make them most of these hours, the plan of taking and filing away for us, as occasion might admit, memoranda of incidents and facts of interest, was adopted in early youth, and has been continued until the present moment. These Notes are, then, simply the results of common and every-day reading, observations, and conversation, for a series of years, in this particular direction.

Clavering, General, and Mr. Barwell. In India, 1775. These gentlemen were members of the Council of Bengal, under the administration of Warren Hastings. They fought, because the General said that Mr. Barwell " had taken money in direct contradiction to his solemn oath." Clavijo, Don Joseph Flaxardo, and Beaumarchais. Clavijo loved a sister of Beaumarchais, but forsook her. This desertion caused an affair of honor, which, with the attending circumstances, deprived the former of his employments and the respect of his countrymen, and his life afterwards was passed under a cloud. Clavijo was a Spanish scholar of note, --the translator of Buffon's Natural History into his vernacular, and Vice-Director of the Cabinet of Natural History. Clay, Henry. This eminent statesman fought two duels. He was the challenger in both. The first, in 1808, with Humphrey Marshall, a fellow-member of the Legislature of Kentucky. Mr. Marshall was a gentleman of talents, of high standing, and a Federalist of great influence. He was the constant antagonist of Mr. Clay in debate, and finally indulged in personal remarks so denunciatory and severe, as to draw a message. They met. They exchanged two or three shots, and retired from the field, each slightly wounded. The second, in 1826, on the Virginia shore of the Potomac, near Washington, with John Randolph. Mr. Clay, at this time, was Secretary of State, Mr. Randolph, a Senator in Congress. This duel, like that in 1808, was political. The particular cause will appear in the extract from Mr. Benton's Thirty Years in the Senate, appended to this notice. Never, in my judgment," has the utter, unconditional absurdity and folly of duelling been so perfectly demonstrated, as in the case before us. These two great...

Download or read book The Book of Duels written by Michael Garriga and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fierce, searing, and darkly comical, Garriga's debut collection of short-short fiction depicts historical and imagined duels, re-envisioning in a flash the competing points of motivation—courage and cowardice, honor and vengeance—that lead individuals to risk it all. In this compact collection, “settling the score” provides a fascinating apparatus for exploring foundational civilizing ideas. Notions of courage, cowardice, and revenge course through Michael Garriga’s flash fiction pieces, each one of which captures a duel’s decisive moment from three distinct perspectives: opposing accounts from the individual duelists, followed by the third account of a witness. In razor-honed language, the voices of the duelists take center stage, training a spotlight on the litany of misguided beliefs and perceptions that lead individuals into such conflicts. From Cain and Abel to Andrew Jackson and Charles Dickenson; from John Henry and the steam drill to an alcoholic fighting the bottle: the cumulative effect of these powerful pieces is a probing and disconcerting look at humankind’s long-held notions of pride, honor, vengeance, and satisfaction. Meticulously crafted by Garriga, and with stunning illustrations by Tynan Kerr, The Book of Duels is a unique and remarkable debut.
