On October 14, 1912, when Roosevelt during election campaign was going to act with speech to the gathered crowd in Milwaukee, somebody shot at it John Shrenk. The bullet got to a breast, having punched at first a case from points and the thick 50-page manuscript lying in an inside pocket with speech which Roosevelt intended to say. Roosevelt as the skilled hunter understanding anatomy, concluded that time it doesn't cough blood, the bullet didn't punch a lung; having refused the help, he said the planned speech while blood blurred on a shirt, and spoke 90 minutes. Roosevelt began words: «Ladies and gentlemen, I do not know, whether you understand that at me just shot; but the Elk so simply you will not kill» (an elk — a symbol of Progressive party of Roosevelt). As found out later, the bullet entered into a breast, but didn't punch a pleura, and it would be more dangerous to take it, than to leave as is. Roosevelt carried this bullet in a breast till the end of life.
