Drawing back his walking stick, President Andrew Jackson turns toward Richard Lawrence, as he pulls the trigger of his second pistol. On the Capitol pavement beside him is his first pistol, which failed to fire its bullet. The second gun's cap exploded, but its gunpowder also failed to ignite to propel the bullet into Jackson. The figure on right may depict Levi Woodbury, Sec. of the Treasury, or Senator Mahlon Dickerson. After the Jan. 8, 1835 assassination attempt, Lawrence was found to be a mentally unstable house painter. (BSIC_2019_1_8)
