　　#美国总统#：第九任总统哈里森(1841年)

　　威廉·亨利·哈里森(William Henry Harrison)是美国军官兼政治家，曾担任第九任美国总统，也是当时美国最年长的当选总统。

　　在担任总统之前，他曾担任印第安纳领地总督12年之久。他在1811年的蒂珀卡努战役中带兵对抗特库姆塞及其盟友并因此声名大振。

　　1840年，辉格党(当时的一个政党)需要一位民族英雄，该党提名哈里森竞选总统。哈里森赢得了大选，但他在就任不足一个月时患了感冒，后来发展成肺炎。哈里森在就职的第32天去世，是首位在任上去世的美国总统，也是美国总统史上任职时间最短的一位总统。

　　#U.S. Presidents# (#9) William Henry Harrison (1841)

　　William Henry Harrison, an American military officer and politician, was the ninth President of the United States and the oldest President to be elected at the time.

　　Before he became the President, he served as the Governor of the Indiana Territory for 12 years. He led a military force against Tecumseh's Confederacy at the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811, upon which Harrison’s fame was to rest.

　　In 1840, the Whigs (a political party at the time), in need of a national hero, nominated him for President. He won the election, but before he had been in office a month, he caught a cold that developed into pneumonia. On his 32nd day, he became the first to die in office, serving the shortest tenure in U.S. Presidential history.
