Peter Snodgrass

He was involved in a second duel, in August 1841, with barrister Redmond Barry, during which Snodgrass's pistol again discharged prematurely.

On both occasions, Snodgrass's life was spared by the honourable conduct of his opponents, who chose to discharge their pistols harmlessly into the air.

Snodgrass was then elected a member of the first Victorian Legislative Assembly and remained so until his death.

The eldest daughter, Janet Marian, married Sir William Clarke.

Snodgrass died in South Yarra, Melbourne, Victoria, of a heart aneurism.
