Andrew Jackson: The US President That Killed a Man in a Duel
The duel between Andrew Jackson and Charles Dickinson took place on May 30, 1806, near the Red River in Kentucky. The dispute stemmed from a series of personal and political disagreements between the two men. Dickinson had insulted Jackson's wife, Rachel, and criticized his decisions as a judge. The actual duel was conducted with pistols at a distance of 24 feet. As the duel commenced, Dickinson fired first and struck Jackson in the chest, causing a severe wound. Jackson, determined to defend his honor, calmly aimed and fired, mortally wounding Dickinson, who died shortly thereafter. Despite his victory, Jackson suffered from the bullet lodged near his heart for the remainder of his life. The incident played a significant role in shaping Jackson's reputation as a man of resolve and bolstered his future political aspirations.
