Shot in the chest while entering an automobile outside the Hotel Gilpatrick
in Milwaukee, WI by would-be assassin John Nepomuk Schrank at about 8:00
p.m. Campaigning on the "Bull Moose" ticket, TR delivers a 90-minute speech
at the Auditorium in Milwaukee before seeking medical attention. The bullet
would never be removed. [Schrank was declared insane on November 13, 1912
and committed to the Northern State Hospital for the Insane at Oshkosh, WI,
and died at the Central State Hospital in Waupun, WI on September 15,1943.]
