I have been all the was' from North

a big every other way as It Is this. It
la whopper: yet It Is not so big after
all, that go where you will, you will
meet somebody that knows somebody
that you know.
These reflections were brought about
the other night while sitting in the
Central Hotel office, awaiting supper,
by a gentleman looking me over pret
ty closely and finally saying:. "Where
are you from North Carolina? Kver
been about Greensboro?"
"Yes."
"Know the Moreheads Governor
Morehead?"
"Tea."
"Well, upon my life, that is good.
Why, I knew them. too. Purlng the

surrender I waa a guard In front of

and I would not take the best hun

It. No, sir, I would not, and I have
carried it in my pocket all these long
years; and at our soldiers' reunion,
when the old fellows are telling of
what they did, I tell them of what I
did, and I prove It by this letter that
I protected people, instead of killing
them." .
And then the obi Federal and my
self, an old Confederate, fell into rem

and of war; we felt a real spirit of
comradeship; we fought our battles

PUGGER WAS NOT TO BLAME.
Justice Montgomery Gives the True
Versel of the Now Famous Duel.
The statement of facts given In The
Post Saturday In connection with the
presentation to the State Museum of
the duelling pistols, with which S. C.
Promgoole and Daniel Dugger fought
their famous duel in ix:!7, were taken
from an article In an historical publlca
tibn. It appears that the article, which at
tempts to give the cause of the duel, is
altogether misleading and does Dugger
a great injustice. Dugger was a brave
and chivalrous gentleman, as those
who knew him testify.
In conversation with a representative
of The Post relative to the famous duel,
Justice Montgomery said:
"For more than thirty years I was
an intimate and personal friend of the
late Capt. John K. Dugger, a son of
Daniel Dugger. who was mortally
wounded In the duel with Dromgonle. I
have talked with him fully WO times
about the duel, ltoth of us resided at
Warrenton. N. C. and I was thorough
ly conversant of the facts connected
with the duel. After Mr. Dugger was
killed, his widow and two sons. John
and Macon, went to Warrenton to live
with Mrs. Dugger's father. Col. Jack
Green. Hugger did not lay claim to be
of so pretentious a family as did Drum
goole. hut he was a gentleman all over,
from top to bottom. There was no bet
ter family In the State than the Dug
gers. The Idea that Drotngoole fought
the duel on the ground that Pugtror In
suited him In the presence of ladies Is
preposterous. Dugger was an aspiring,
ambitious man. The ways of the two
men clashed, and the duel was a result
of apolitical falling out from beginning
to end. Politics was the cause of the
duel bevond doubt.
"Neither the widow nor the sons of
Dugger received a cent from Drom
goole, and if they had waited for his
support they would have perished. The
family lived with Col. Green until the
mother died. The boys were aided in
their education by two gentlemen
whose names are well known by many
of the old people of Wurrenl on. and
but for a broach of colilldcnce I would
name them.
Gen. M. W. Ransom knows possibly
liioi-e about the affair than 1. as be
was acquainted with the mother of the
two bovs Probably the same is true
with Col. Wharloii .1. Uri-n. of Fuy
