What triggered Burr to challenge Hamilton to a duel?

1 answer:

8 0

Hamilton continously turned to public against him, causing Burr to lose when he was running for President of the US and governor of New York.

However, Burr never meant to actually kill Hamilton, because duels were rarely fatal. Hamilton died because he was shot between the ribs and Burr was charged with treason.
