    Spanish sisters duel to the death on a roof

    This I'm going to work up as a story. Already sketching it out. I am posting this to suggest historical real girls fights as subject matter for fantasies.


    file: DUEL ON A ROOF
    ---------------------------------------

    The Advisor (Adelaide, SA: 1889-1931) Monday 26, September 1904
    ---------------------------------------
    DUAL ON A ROOF.
    TWO GIRLS KILL EACH OTHER.
    Jealousy led Maria Vega Gonzalez, age 17, and Maria Gonz?lez Garc?a, age 19, to fight a duel under extraordinary circumstances in the Madrid on August 18, with fatal results to both.
    They were cousins, and both were exceedingly beautiful girls. Unfortunately both fall in love with the young and handsome youth, who refuse to show a preference for either. Their jealousy of each other grew so intense that they finally decided to fight a duel to the death.
    Providing themselves with knives, they climbed out on the roof of an untenanted house, and, taking off their upper garments, attacked each other with great fury. The fight was witnessed by several spectators from a house opposite, and is described as being of an exceptionally desperate character. Both girls were soon covered with blood. They constantly became with their knives ?locked? together, and hacked at each other's backs with their knives.
    The spectator shrieked loudly for the police, but when the constable arrived and succeeded in getting access to the roof, the girls were laying across each other, mortally molded, presenting a fearful spectacle. One died while being taken to the hospital, and the other succumbed a few hours later.
