...1. James Madison 2. Benedict Arnold 3. Aaron Burr 4. Steph Hopkins Aaron Burr, who served as Vice President to Thomas Jefferson made an unsuccessful bid for the office of Governor of New York in 1804. Burr attributed his political defeat in part to Alexander Hamilton, who had written several unflattering newspaper stories about him. Following the election, Hamilton made several negative comments about Burr at a post election dinner. Burr felt that his honor had been insulted by the comments, and challenged Hamilton to a duel to take place on July 11, 1804. The duel took place on the West Bank of the Hudson River in New Jersey, a spot that was popular for dueling. Ironically, Hamilton's eldest son, Phillip, was killed three years earlier in a duel that took place at the same spot. When the duel ended, Hamilton lay mortally wounded from a gunshot wound to his lower abdomen. Hamilton was taken to New York, where he was able to receive final visits from family and friends before succumbing to his wound on the following day, July 12, 1804. Burr was indicted for murder both in New York and New Jersey, but the charges were dismissed or ended with an acquittal.
