William Henry Harrison who was the oldest president (until Regan), was also the first to die in office and had the shortest term in history.  He became ill and died of pneumonia 31 days into his term on April 4, 1841.  John Tyler, the vice president, took office on April 4, 1881.  What was truly unique was that it was the first of only two times that the US had three presidents in one year.  It happened a second time in 1881 when Rutherford B Hayes was followed by James A Garfield.  Garfield was assassinated that year , and Chester A. Arthur assumed the Presidency.
