In 8, pp. 35 + (1). Br. rifatta con carta d'epoca. Ed. orig. di questo pamphlet contro il duello: 'En 1836, le colonel baron de Perron fait publier dans une brochure le texte d?une Pe'tition contre le duel adresse'e a' la chambre des de'pute's. Voulant expliquer la persistance d?une coutume qu?il juge anachronique, il y affirme que c?est l?imitation des usages de l?ancienne noblesse qui a ramene' peu a' peu le duel dans les classes qui ont remplace' celle-ci et qui ont surgi de l?arme'e, du barreau, des arts et du commerce.

180124959<p><b>PHILIP HAMILTON DUEL.</b>Newspaper. <i>The Salem Gazette</i> December 4 1801. Salem Massachusetts: Thomas C. Cushing. 4 pp. </p><b>Excerpts:</b><p>"<i>Since extracting the account of the duel in which Mr. Hamilton was wounded from a New York paper we have received the following affecting and melancholy intelligence.</i></p><p>"<i>'With sorrow I state to you from the information of a gentleman immediately from New York that the ill-fated Philip expired on Tuesday morning. He was shot through the body after attempting in vain to appease his antagonist and after deporting himself with equal coolness and spirit. Eacker is a flagrant democrat and the quarrel was a political one.'</i>" p2/c4</p><p>"<i>Poor Philip Hamilton the amiable and worthy son of General Hamilton aged about 19 died last night of the wound he received of Mr. Eacker. It is a most melancholy event. He had just completed the best of educations and bid fair to be an ornament to society</i>." p2/c4</p><p>A full-column letter entitled "The Duellists" and dated November 27 gives details from the Eacker perspective:</p><p>"<i>The friends of Mr. Eacker consider themselves obliged in consequence of the gross misstatements omissions and unfounded falsehoods which have appeared in a Morning and Evening Paper to lay before the public the unfortunate causes which produced the truly melancholy catastrophe of Monday. They beg leave to assure the public and Mr. Hamilton's friends in particular that it is with the extremest regret that they are obliged to give publicity to these circumstances; but their duty to Mr. Eacker and to truth compels them to undertake the painful task.</i>" p2/c3</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>On July 4 1801 George Eacker had given a speech at King's College now Columbia University criticizing Federalist policies many of which were developed by Alexander Hamilton. On November 20 1801 Philip Hamilton and friend Richard Price went to see a play at Park Theater and ran into Eacker. A screaming match ensued and Eacker called them "damned rascals" a grave insult. Both Philip and Price challenged Eacker to duels. On November 22 Eacker and Price dueled in Weehawken New Jersey but neither were injured. The next day at the same location Eacker faced Hamilton who reportedly took his father's advice and refused to raise his pistol. Eacker did not shoot either—at first. After some time Eacker raised his pistol and Philip followed. Eacker shot. The bullet struck Hamilton above his right hip went through his body and lodged in his left arm. He died on the morning of November 24.</p><p>Three years later Alexander Hamilton would duel in the same spot with the same tragic results right down to his mortal wound being attended by the same doctor.</p> books
