"The best of wives and women " Alexander said to Eliza before kissing her lips one last time .
•••••••••••••••••••••
"Mom ! People are crying in the streets ! Mom ! You better get out here " her son James said as she was feeding Little Phil .
"Okay ... Watch your brother " Eliza said and stepped out of the house . She saw people running to her , quickly .
She looked a saw a women with a light red dress and curly hair . "Angelica ! What's wrong ?" Eliza asked as her sister approached her .
"Ms. Hamilton... I'm so sorry ... Alexander was such a wonderful man" a local man said .
Angelica nodded and Eliza collapsed in tears . "Alexander " she cried harder and harder .
The two women ran to the docks to see a small boat with a doctor and a barely living Hamilton .
Eliza ran up the dock to Alexander.
"Shh ... Oh lord ! Who did this ?" Eliza asked hugging onto Alexander for dear life.
"Mr. Burr " the doctor said .
"Is he breathing ? Is he going to survive this ?" She asked with memories of Phillp passing .
"I'm afraid not Mrs. Hamilton " .
Eliza said her finally goodbye and kissed him one last time .
"Eliza my love ... Take your time .... I'll see you on the other side .... Raise a Glass to Freedom " and then he passed .

Her husband was gone and her heart was broken . Eliza had taken the children to church with Angelica almost three weeks after his passing .
"Oh I'm sorry sir " Eliza said bumping into a man .
"It's okay ... Eliza ...." She looked up and saw none other than Aaron Burr .
Eliza didn't say anything for her emotions wouldn't let her .
"Eliza .... I am so sorry for taking his life .... He aimed at the sky ... But , I do believe he wrote you a final letter .... While we were serving he always told me to write a letter to my next to kin ... " Aaron said "again I'm so sorry Eliza-"
"Mrs. Alexander Hamilton " Angelica butted in and took her sister home.
Eliza looked through his desk and all and finally found the letter.... Along with eight more , each with a name on them .
Angelica S. Church
James
Alexander
Little Phil
Elizabeth-Holly
Angelica
John
William
Mrs. Elizabeth Schyuler Hamilton.
Eliza quickly tore hers open and read it .
My Loving Wife ,
I believe that I must have passed in order for you to find this ... Please don't not be cruel to Mr. Burr for he will have all the pain that comes with taking a mans life .
I'm an idiot ! I should have never done any of the stupid things I've done through our marriage ...
Leaving you only weeks after we wed.
Doing the duel with John Laurens and Charles Lee.
Coming home to see you pregnant and leaving days later .
Risking my life and yours .
Taking the job as George Washington's Secretary of Treasure .
Writing like I was running out of time .
Not going that summer with you Philip and both Angelica's to your father's home .
Sleeping with Maria Reynolds
Publishing that I slept with Maria Reynolds
Telling Philip that aiming at the sky was a smart idea !
But , I knew you would never make any of these or one of these mistakes .... I love you ... And I am sorry to leave you ...
Please watch after our children, if you must , move into the Schuyler Mansion with your mother ...
Please use the address I've listed to write to my brother James , tell him Alex did in fact get killed because of his quill ... And my half-brother Peter let him know that mother loved him and didn't leave him but his father.
Write a letter to this place off the Croix , the town I grew up in , tell them Alexander made it out , and Alexander will be joining Rachel , my mother , in the sky .
Take the letters i have written and give them to our children , read Little Philp's his if needed and let them know that besides you they were the most important things in my life !
Give Angelica her letter , and tell her I thank her for helping you through everything !
I will see Philip , our first born , and we will watch over you and the children ....
Eliza ... I love you and I always will .
Eliza my love , take your time ... I'll see you on the other side ...
With much love ,
A. Hamilton..
P.S.
You've got me feeling so helpless .
