A. a business failure between them.
B. a dispute over a woman.
C. Hamilton's election as governor of New York.

The duel stemmed from a history of animosity between both men over the years. The existing personal animosity and personal bitterness between both individuals came to a head in the run-up to the governorship election in New-York in 1804.
