Who was the man who challenged Hamilton to a duel?
Apparently, a number of people challenged Alexander Hamilton to a duel, but the best known was the one with Vice-President Aaron Burr in July 1804. Burr challenged Hamilton because Hamilton refused to apologize for gossip he spread implying Burr made nasty comments about another person, and Burr read about it in the newspaper. After unsuccessfully demanding an apology from Hamilton, the Vice-President finally challenged him to a duel to avenge his honor. Hamilton fired first, deliberately throwing away his shot (missing Burr); the bullet was later found lodged in a tree limb fourteen feet off the ground. Burr aimed directly at Hamilton and fired. The bullet struck Hamilton in the lower abdomen, ricocheted off his ribs, damaged his internal organs, and severed his spine, immediately paralyzing him from the waist down. Hamilton died of his wounds the next day.

Did Alexander Hamilton die?
Hamilton was fatally shot by Aaron Burr in a duel. Contrary to popular belief Burr challenged Hamilton to a duel, not the other way around. Burr thought Hamilton to be the sole detriment to his public career. Without Hamilton, he reasoned, he could achieve greatness. On July 11, 1804, he shot Hamilton. Although historians today still argue about what actually happened on the ground, it's clear that Burr's shot, which came with such force that it ricocheted in Hamilton's stomach, splintering a vertebrae, proved mortal. Hamilton died 31 hours later of those injuries, on July 12. Burr was indicted for murder in New Jersey, but the charges were dropped. However Burr would later be charged with treason...but that's another day's story.
