LONG-DELAYED DUEL
SEPARATED BY WAR 'W From Budapest cornea the report ol a duel which would have been foughl ten years ago if the two combatants had not chanced to get separated bj tho war, although’ they also both happened to ho thrown into different prison camps in Russia. But it was not until recently that they were able tc meet on Hungarian soil and wipe oul the debt of honour in the approved manner. .Quite naturally the newspaper report did not trouble to state tho actual cause of the duel, which really seems to be a mere petty detail in most of these affairs. Possibly it may have been forgotten hv now. However, no great harm was done, for both parties escaped with slight wounds, and went away together quit© good friends.
