39. William Henry Harrison
Prior to his death, William Henry Harrison only served as U.S. President for 30 days before he passed away. A rainy inauguration day gave Harrison pneumonia that ultimately took his life. The illness was reportedly blamed on Harrison’s two-hour speech, which he gave with no warm coat on. William Henry Harrison’s wife, Anna, did not accompany him to Washington, DC, because she was too ill to travel. The Harrisons’ daughter-in-law served as White House hostess.

Prior to the American Revolution, Harrison was the last President to serve in office. His biggest claim to fame during his short term was commanding the U.S. Military. This led to winning the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811. It also earned Harrison’s “Old Tippecanoe” nickname.
