The Hannibal Journal, Thursday, October 12 1848
Death of the Hon. Michael Hoffman. -- Michael Hoffman died on Wednesday 
afternoon, 27th ult., at his residence, in Brooklyn, N.Y., after a somewhat 
long and painful illness.  Mr. Hoffman was one of the ablest men of the State, 
and was esteemed as one of the ablest men of the State, and was esteemed as 
one of the most valuable that had ever held a seat in the Legislature. -- He 
came to New York city from Herkimar county, which he had only represented in 
the Legislature, in Congress, in the Convention which framed the present State 
Constitution. -- He was a decided partizan of the school of Samuel Young and 
Silas Wright, and one of the Free Soil Democracy, to which, though an officer 
under Polk and in daily danger of removal, he was firmly devoted.  He died at 
the age of sixty.
