Adolph Vennet (search for this): article 12
Duel. --An affair of honor came off early yesterday morning, in the rear of the Metairie race course, between Messrs. Adolph Vennet and Jesse Little. The terms arranged between the seconds were that the affair was to be commenced with dueling pistols, and, in case no one was hurt after the first fire, a resort would be had to small swords, when the fight should continue. The pistol shooting resulted harmlessly, when the combatants immediately took to their small swords and fought until case no one was hurt after the first fire, a resort would be had to small swords, when the fight should continue. The pistol shooting resulted harmlessly, when the combatants immediately took to their small swords and fought until both were wounded, when the seconds interfered and ended the affair. Mr. Vennet was wounded in the right arm, and Mr. Little in the right leg. We have been informed that both behaved gallantly, and that the fencing was of the most scientific kind.--N. O. Crescent.
