The facts aretruly stated, as can be easily verified.oAbout ten years ago, in a little south-ern town, two friends of mine, a youngman and a man of middle age, had adifficulty, and the former fell dea,pierced through the heart with a : paltetfrom a revolver, "oThe blame all rested with the de-ceased. He came of a highly-respecta-ble family, but had fallen into con-vivial habits, and when drinking wasvery ugly. Time and again he had madethreats against the man who killed him.Friends of the laiter told him of thethreats, and begged him to avoid & meet-ing, which he did whenever possible.At last it came to a question of killingor getting killed, and he obeyed nature'sfirst law. vsoA jury would have cleared him be-yond all doubt if the case had ever cometo trial, but it never did. Instead, heforfeited his bond of 38,000, and thecash was paid over by my hands, Theman who did the killing left for partsunknown and has never returned,oWhy did he not stand trial? Simplybecause the father of the deceased so!-emnly declared in the presence of all histownsmen that if John "" was acquis-ted of slaying his son he would becomethe boyTs avenger, He would kill hissonTs slayer.The old man was never known to~break his word. His courage was ofthat desperate kind that feared noth-ing. Nobody doubted that he. woulddo just, what he said, so I advised John""" to clear out, and, as there had beenenough killing; he, went.oTen years have gone by, and the oldfather has never relented. He standsready to-day to make good his oath.Argument and persuasion are. useless,and a good man is forced into banish-ment as long as the other lives.
