Yesterday morning a duel was fought in Boyle, Co: Roscommon between John Taafe, Esq of Kingsfort and James Bridgeham Esq, of Carrowcawley both of this county. After discharging two shots each the matter was happily terminated by the interference of the seconds and a number of friends.
{Faulkner's Journal}
We are always interested in any material related to duelling in Ireland.
