CUP of buttermilk, which was given
him, and it was while drinking it
that some one noticed blood from
his wound and called attention to
it. Jackson replied with an oath not
to mention it, as he wanted Dickln-
son to die without even the comfort
of knowing that he had been hit, and
continued: Il would have lived long
enough to kill him if he had shot me
through the heart"
Dickinson's friends have always
insisted that Jackson tricked his op-
ponent in the duel-that Jackson,
who was very tall and slight of
figure, wore purposely an unusually
loose fitting coat and thereby Dickln-
son was deceived as to the location
of his adversarys heart and aimed
a trife to one side.
In the river bottom where the
memorable affair took place there
stood until recent years two enor-
nous trees about ten PAGES apart
that were reputed to mark the spots
on which the duelists stood. These
trees we're carefully preserved until
weakened by decay they were blown
down by passing storm.
And through all of his stormy ca
reer Gen. Jackson's tender devotion
to his wife never waned. 1t was af-
ter his election to the presidency the
first time, but before the Inaugural
ton, that she died. AS the sorrow
ing husband was looking on the dear
features for the last time he said to
those in the room: I'm the presence
of this dear saint can and do for
give all my enemies; but those vile
wretches who have slandered her
must look to Goo for mercy.
She was buried in the garden at
the Hermitage, and Gen. Jackson had
a monument erected on which is in
scribed:
Here lies the remains of Mrs.
Rachel Jackson, wife of President
Jackson, who died the 22nd of De-
cember, 1928 A being so gentle
and yet so virtuous, vile slander
might wound but could not dishonor.
Even death, when he tore her from
the arms of her husband, could but
transport her to the bosom of her
God. New York Sun.
