The Hannibal Journal, Thursday, Nov. 2, 1848
It is with feelings of great regret, we have to announce in our paper of this 
week, the death of another of our distinguished men and pure Patriot, Harrison 
Gray Otis, who died in Boston on the 28th ultimo.  Mr. Otis was one of those 
few men in our country, who rise to distinction upon their own intrinsic 
merits, and who, by that distinction, are placed beyond the temptations to 
meanness and dishonesty, that many of our Politicians and Statesmen became 
victioms to.  As such, and as a pure patriot, it is one of the greatest 
recommendations to Gen. Taylor, that his nomination to the Presidency received 
his sanction and support, which was given in a letter of Mr. Otis' recently 
published.


Additional Comments:
The Hannibal Journal was published in Hannibal, Marion County, Missouri.
