William Henry Harrison...

Before he had been in office a month, he caught a cold that developed into pneumonia. On April 4, 1841, he died--the first President to die in office--and with him died the Whig program.

"Before he had been in office a month, he caught a cold that developed into pneumonia. On April 4, 1841, he died--the first President to die in office..."

I've long named him our best President for the very same reason.
