ness of his wound, but cautioned his friends
been struck. He rode to the tavern, drank
a quart of buttermilk fresh from a negro
woman's churn, and went to bed. Then he
sent bottle of wine to Dickinson's second
and offered the services of his surgeon; but
the answer came back that the case was be-
yond the reach of surgery.
Poor Dickinson fingered in intense agony
until ten o'clock that night, when he died.
His young wife, who knew nothing about the
duel, had been sent for; but she could not
reach him in time: his body met her on the
road
Not only Nashville but all Tennessee was
stirred by the tragedy, and Jackson was
made to feel the growing sentiment against
this fashion of settling petty quarrels. As
in the case of Aaron Burr, the victor's po-
htical advancement seemed to have reached
an end. This would have been the case but
for Jackson's wonderful personality. In
stead of remaining under a cloud, he went
sturdily ahead in rugged, honest way that
so won the people that he was undoubtedly
the most universally popular man in the
country when he came to the presidential
chair.
But the ounce ball that Dickinson sent
into his breast eventually did its work.
Jackson's best historian says that it was
a factor in bringing Old Hickory to his
grave. Certainly it is true that the tragic
meeting beneath the Kentucky poplars has
tened the end of the 4gentlemanly' practice
of settling quarrels with nine-inch pistols.

there. The bullet had broken two of his
ribs and grazed the breastbone; but the
mans wonderful will power kept him from
giving any sign of wound. Erect and grim,
he stood with clenched teeth as before. Over
ton gave a sigh of relief.
Dickinson, amazed at the thought that
he had missed after all his exhibitions of
craftsmanship, instinctively recoiled step
or two.

deliberate aim. When he pulled the trigger
nothing happened. Looking with surprise
at his gun, he saw that the hammer had
stopped at half-cock. Cooking the pistol
again, he took aim second time and fired.
Dickinson reeled and fell into the arms of the
friends who rushed to his side. AS they
lowered him to the ground they saw his gray
trousers already REDEEMED with blood. The
bullet had passed entirely through his body
just below the ribs, and had evidently per
forated the intcstines. Overton saw the ma
ture of the wound and led Jackson away,
saying that his antagonist would want moth
ing more from him.
Jackson walked off the field between his
second and his surgeon. Suddenly the latter
saw that Jackson's shoe was full of blood
"My God, General! are you hit?' he
asked.
