皆さん、拍手喝采してください... Alexander Hamilton!

     Alexander Hamilton, one of the first Treasurers of America. This man was famous for being in the Revolutionary War, and for being a faithful follower of the great George Washington. Not only was Hamilton famous for being in the war, a play was made for him many years later. But was more to his life then just a play, he was a pioneer for economics.

 
     He first began his journey at the Treasury. He designed it in his own special way, he had put a lot of wooden artifacts in there to make it look beautiful. Things were going well for him in the beginning. He attended many parties with his wife, and every time they went, people loved them. Washington held Hamilton up with a very high honor, and always considered Hamilton as a friend. 

 
     As Hamilton's job as a treasurer furthered, things got hard. Hamilton wanted to create an alliance with the British, because he did not want them to retaliate and fight them again. Plus if Hamilton had an alliance with them, he could then guarantee that America could keep the British in check. Especially when a British diplomat appeared into the scene, that man's name was Major George Beckwith. 
     
     Beckwith wanted to meet Hamilton, so he could discuss with him about how Hamilton was going to be as a treasurer. Hamilton, and those who were his friends around him, did not want this Brit nearby. But they knew that it could be profitable having a British leader on their land, so as to make it seem as if America and England would turn out alright. Hamilton chose to talk with Beckwith. The two seemed to be fine for a while, but Hamilton still had his doubts.
 
     Hamilton then self-volunteered to become a spy to see what the British were really up to. However he never wanted to hurt Beckwith, which seems strange. He then eyed every move that Beckwith ever made, even though they both agreed on a lot of economical ideas. After Beckwith stayed in America for a while, he finally returned to his homeland. Hamilton still did not feel good about these decisions, so he suggested to a man named Gouverneur Morris to go to England to continue his spy duty.
 
     Hamilton later went to the country to make a final deal with Beckwith. After the meeting, Hamilton left, he felt that there was nothing to worry about. Hamilton then began to make preparations to exchange money with Beckwith and the British. He made quite a process. 
 
     Hamilton made many different trade and deals with the British, and even some of his own country men, and he made a great sum of money as well as them. However, Hamilton had himself wrapped way to much in work. He did not realize that within his own country, that their would be people who did not like him.
 
     Aaron Burr, the former third vice president. Wanted to become governor of New York, but his opponent thought very different things that Burr did not like. So he sent a letter to Hamilton asking him to consider Burr for the position, and to find flaws in the other man. Hamilton replied with saying that he agreed with the opponent, and not Burr. 
 
     Burr being disappointed, wanted nothing more then to become governor, so he kept sending letters. And he still had replies that he did not enjoy. Burr sent one last letter, a acceptance to a duel. A duel to the death. Hamilton oddly accepted. The two stood outside with their pistols at the ready. They shot, and Burr won. Burr needed acceptance from Hamilton in order to become governor, but with Hamilton gone, Burr was able to run for the position.
 
     In the end, Hamilton was a economist who dealt with some shady people. And died by a stupid choice. How economical.
