INCLUDING ENSIIRNED FAME"

ton. Others have declared that Hamil
ton had color" in mis- veint This ide,
perhaps originated because Hamilton
was born in the West Indies. AS
matter Of fact, Hamilton was the very
antithesis I'm aspect from what many
or later days imagined him. He was so
fair that he looked more like his Scotch
father than his French p1other. We
must NOT forget that Hamilton was a
loader among the great men who
founded this government. and that as
such he was the victim Of malicious
gossip even in his own day.
When he was early left half-orphap
by tho untimely death of his mother,
Hamilton emigrated to this country,
studied at the College OF New York,
swept through a crowd OF patriots
gathered In front OF the City Hall In
demonstration against some OF the
things that brought on the revolution,
and spoke to the throng SO clearly, so
wildly and so magnetically that he be-
came popular hero. lie entered the
continental army as n captain of artil-
lery at l9. and soon was made an aide
to Gen. Washington. who thereafter re-
manned his stanch friend and admirer.
After the war Hamilton became a
lawyer, married one Of Gen Schuyler's
daughters, relinquished a lucrative prac-
tce to aid in the drafting of the consti-
tuition OF the United States, and then
because he felt 1t his duty-accepted the
post OF secretary of the treasury in
Washington's cabinet. Those who have
studied the matter deeply declare that
the financial system OF the United
States was the work Of Hamilton to n
degree which made 1t singularly his
own.
The indescribaole fascination of Ham,
Dton's person. his great mental endow-
Inents. and his tireless industry caused
him to be the centre of many of the
most important events connected with
the founding Of this nation. 1t was at
the height of his power and popularity.
but at a time when his personal pros
perity was very low. because he had
devoted all his energies to his country's
welfare, that he met Aaron Burr in a
duel at Weehawken, N. j.
The cause of the duel is clear. Even
In those days Burr was not free from
the sort of thing that eliminated In the
act for which he was tried for treason.
and Hamilton believed 1t his duty to
warn men against him. But Hamilton
had a great horror Of taking human
life, 50 in the duel ne did not discharge
his pistol. but died on the very spot
where his Observation-Disclosures killed
IN duel three years before. under SINH
