Description:

Transcript:
On Saturday evening a hostile meeting took place at Cardigan, but strange to say that when the distance was arranged, the parties had but one pistol between them, and they agreed to toss for the first fire. The yeoman who was to have received it, thought discretion the better part of valour, so he ran away to the Greyhound Inn, and left the son of Mars to fire at the wind.
