"I DON'T CARE A PINCH OF SNUFF."

"I do not care a pinch of snuff what weapons Lord Kenyon chooses so long as they are worthy of settling

military services of the two cousins. Sir Claude says he was incensed at seeing a picture of Lord Kenyon at the Barlington Galleries in his full uniform and decorations.

Both he and Lord Kenyon fought in the Boer War. Following the picture gallery incident, St Claude sent his cousin a letter which the latter considered libellous. Sir Claude denied that it was libellous! It

This remark was made to a Daily Mail representative by Sir Claude Champion de Crespigny, who discussed the latest situation in his "affair" with Lord Kenyon and sundry matters of twentieth-century chivalry.

It will be seen that Sir Claude still anticipates that his cousin Lord Kenyon will accommodate him and that the duel will take place discreetly somewhere across the water.

Claude called Lord Kenyon a yeoman,
