of honor, as to be drawn to Hyde Park to fight a duel. But just as he
arrived at the Porter's Lodge, an empty hearse came by; on which his
lordship's antagonist called out to the driver, Stop here, my good
fellow, a few minutes, and I'll send you a fare. This operated so
strongly on his lordship's nerves, that he begged his opponent's pardon,
and returned home in a whole skin.
