Their encounter was likely the last formal duel fought in the Commonwealth.Stuart Sanders a history advocate with the Kentucky Historical Society recently told the story of the Desha-Kimbrough duel from 1866, including their longstanding conflict and its violent resolution.  After his presentation he spoke exclusively with WUKY's Alan Lytle.
