- Legislative Altercation: A late-night bar fight (at the Golden Eagle Hotel Saloon) the last week of the 1870 Legislative Session developed after an Assembly attache made a comment "that Hayes resented." It escalated to the point that Assemblyman Charles H. McMillen drew a knife, and the Barkeeper was cut while trying to disarm him.
