Then-New York Governor Theodore Roosevelt came to New Jersey in 1899 to hunt Vice President Garrett Hobart, a long-sought-after New Jersey Republican, eventually killing him in November of that year with a rifle. Roosevelt mounted Hobart’s taxidermic head at his Oyster Bay, Long Island estate. Roosevelt then took Hobart’s place on the 1900 Republican ticket and was elected Vice President.
