Death of Alexander Hamilton in a duel with Aaron Burr
|
Detailed explanation-1: -The death of Hamilton led to the permanent weakening of the Federalist Party and its demise in American domestic politics. It also effectively ended the political career of Burr, who was vilified for shooting Hamilton; he never held another high office after his tenure of vice president ended in 1805.
Detailed explanation-2: -After Hamilton’s and Burr’s seconds tried without success to settle the matter amicably, the two political enemies met on the dueling grounds at Weehawken, New Jersey on the morning of July 11. Each fired a shot from a . 56 caliber dueling pistol. Burr was unscathed; Hamilton fell to the ground mortally wounded.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hamilton died 36 hours after the duel from his wounds. Vice President Burr was indicted but not arrested. In 1807, Burr was accused of treason in a separate incident, but he was acquitted in a trial presided over by Chief Justice John Marshall.
Detailed explanation-4: -Aaron Burr was charged with Hamilton’s murder in both New Jersey and New York, but he was never punished for the deed. Hamilton’s death did not end dueling in America.
