- Suggest ALT1: ... that a duel between Councilmember Clay Beauford (pictured) of the 13th Arizona Territorial Legislature and a copper company's lobbyist was called off due to difficulties in finding French sabres?

Both hooks meet all criteria, but Allen3's ALT is my preference. The article (originally from AFC) meets date, length, citation and other criteria. Few sources are online, and current refs [5] and [6] come up with "HTTP 403 Forbidden" errors—are the URLs correct? In any case, this is suitably referenced to numerous book sources.
