All things Western and more.
Did you know that in 1804 the Vice President of the United States--Aaron Burr--fought a duel with the Secretary of the Treasury--Alexander Hamilton--and killed him?
Yes, I knew this. Believe it or not, I learned it in high school!
No, something else I didn't know! Hugs, Valerie
No Sandra I did not know, Sorry for the delay in replying.Yvonne.
News to me. A political disagreement taken too far?
I remember hearing about this in history class
What some current politicians would like to do now. As it was a duel, I suppose no charge was laid.
I did! Even before seeing "Hamilton!"
Now that I DID know.
Yes, I knew this. I could never remember whom he killed until the Broadway hit “Hamilton” came into being.
I remembered it from school but Hamilton refereshed my memory :) xo
wow back in the day...
You know I did too, Elizabeth, but the fact that they held such high offices went right over my head.
No reason you should know that one:)Hugs received and returned.
Definitely, way before everyone learned from the musical
No problem at all. Hope all is well.
I believe one disparaged the other.

He was indicted for murder but got the heck out of Dodge before he got thrown in jail. At some point the charges were dropped.
Good job:)
Good job.
Really!??
Indeed.
Yes indeed:)
Dirty works at the crossroads!!
Yes, I knew, but it never hurts to be reminded about history.Love,Janie
Wow!!!! Big Hugs!
