Y'know, since we're on the subject, just to add some details to accepted history....and to set the record straight...

....Muttly's great, great, great, great.......grandfather was minding his own business back at the rowboat, "testing" the oarsman's mutton and cheese sandwich, just for safety's sake..when all of a sudden the ball from Hamilton's pistol knocked the thing right out of his mouth. He was so startled that he could hardly swallow what was left. Oh..and just to clear up a little matter while we're at it...my ancestor did not, contrary to popular opinion, accept a bribe from Burr to "water" Hamilton's powder.

So if it did happen...it was an honest mistake.
