HAD TO FIGHT DUEL OR WED
You. Ma teprpetis t tlve Chat
huum it Mere Suprise to Find
F*e a w eane
William Kenrick, a Berkshire gentle.
pa f a hundred years ago, left his
, which was considerable, to
only daughter. This young lady
a mind of her own and, finding
one of her suialtors to her liking, sim
ly determined to wait until the right
tleman should come along.
It so happened that one day she at
tended a wedding at Reading, an ex
khange relates, where she met a young
gentleman named Benjamin Child. He
was a poor attorney. With this hand
Mome young man the younger lady fell
violently in love, but still she was can
ious. She reasoned with herself for
ý veral days, trying to shake herself
of the sudden passion, but all in
vain. Then, feeling that something
must be done, but unable, from confu
sion of mind, to devise a proper course,
bhe took the extraordinary step of
pending the young man a letter de
manding satisfattlon for alleged In
jurles. She appointed a time and place
for the hostile meeting. Mr. Child was
much surprised, and quite at a loss to
conceive who the challenger could be.
By the advice of a friend, he decided
to go to the dueling place. Here he
was met by the young woman, who,
much to his surprise, told him he
would have to fight her or marry her.
He naturally chose the latter, and, as
the saying goes, they lived happily
ever afterward.
FIRST STEAMERS ON LAKES
The Ontario and the Frontenao
Launched 101 Years Ago, Were
Constructed in 1816.
The first steamboats on the Great
kakes were launched 101 years ago on
take Ontario. Two craft operated by
steam were constructed in 1816 on the
shores of the latter lake, one being
the Ontario, built at Sacketts Harbor,
tN. Y., and the other the Frontenac,
;which was launched at Ernertown,
Canada, on September 7, 1816. The
FrontenRc was one of the finest steam
boats afloat at that time. It cost $75,
000, and was of 700-tons burden, its
length of dedk being 170 feet. The
Fronthuac was placed in operation 100
years ago, making three round trips
each month from Kingston to York and
Niagara. Capt. James McKenzie, who
had had experience in the British navy,
was placed in command. The Iron
tense was in service on Lake Ontario
for ten years, and soon had several
rivals for the lake trade.
A fare of $15 was charged from
lngston to Niagara for frst-clas pas
sengers, but deck passengers were car
ried for $3.75 a head. The treight rate
as "4 shillings per barrel bulk."
The first steamship on Lake, rie
was the Walk-indbe-Water, which was
launc.ed at Black Rock, near Buaalo,
In 1818.
