Attempted assassination of Lilburn Boggs
An attempted assassination of Lilburn Boggs occurred on May 6, 1842, when an unknown assailant fired buckshot into Boggs's home, striking the former Missouri Governor. Boggs was shot through a window as he read a newspaper in his study and was hit in four places: two balls were lodged in his skull, a third lodged in his neck, and a fourth entered his throat and was swallowed. Boggs was severely injured. Several doctors—Boggs's brother among them—pronounced his injuries fatal, and at least one newspaper ran an obituary. To general surprise, Boggs not only survived, but his condition gradually improved.
