The absences of John Lansing and Robert Yates made this man the only delegate from his state present at the Constitutional Convention. His reputation was badly tarnished by his affair with Maria Reynolds. His support of Charles Pinckney's candidacy severely crippled his own party, and his support of Thomas Jefferson as the lesser of two evils led to his eventual demise. This author of a Report on Manufactures also served as Washington's aide-de-camp and argued for protective tariffs as Secretary of the Treasury. For 10 points, name this early Federalist who was killed in a duel by Aaron Burr.
