 威廉·亨利·哈里森出身于弗吉尼亚种植者贵族家庭。他生于1773年(癸巳年)伯克利,是美国第九任总统(1841年3月4日--1841年4月4日),《独立宣言》签署人之一。威廉·亨利·哈里森在印第安纳州打败肖肖尼印第安人,人称“提帕卡农英雄”。也是美国历史上执政时间最短的总统,只有一个月。他不久即患肺炎,在他宣誓就职后1个月即不幸去世。他的孙子是美国第23任总统本杰明·哈里森。


William Henry Harrison was the ninth President of the United States.  He was born in 1773 into a wealthy plantation-owning family. He studied classics and history at college and then began studying medicine in 1791. In that same year, Harrison switched interests and joined the First Infantry 1 of the Regular Army. He headed to the Northwest, where he spent much of his life.


 


Harrison resigned from the army in 1798 to become Secretary of the Northwest Territory. He used his contacts in the east to get elected to Congress. In 1801 he became Governor of the Indiana Territory, serving 12 years. His prime task as governor was to take over Native American lands. His victory in the Battle of the Thames against Native Americans and the British in 1813 made him a national hero.


 


Thereafter Harrison returned to civilian 2 life. The Whigs, in need of a national hero, nominated him for President in 1840. He won by a majority of less than 150,000, but swept the Electoral College, 234 to 60. He arrived in Washington in February 1841 and gave the longest Inaugural 3 Address in American history. It took him nearly two hours to read.


 


Harrison died on April 4, 1841 of pneumonia 4. His 30 days in office is the shortest term of any U.S. president. He was the first president to die in office and the last to be born under British rule (i.e. before the Declaration of Independence). Harrison was also the first president to have his photograph taken. His grandson was the 23rd president making them the only grandparent–grandchild pair of presidents.
