RE: The Last Fatal Duel: The Two Georges
Simply fascinating! Two families, their fate decided upon the misplaced pride of another. As interesting as duels sounded in stories, I cannot help but wonder why anyone would enter into one, knowing there would be certain death.
Before the fall comes pride or is it -after pride comes the fall?
Yes! That!
Have a blessed night, Jo!

Thanks so much Denise. I was just over reading your post- must be great minds think alike 😂
Wetmore and Street certainly took pride to a deadly level.
At the time of the duel, it seemed upholding one’s honor was more important than their life or about their wife and children being left.
