When we talk about the death of the president of the United States, we must first talk about his life. John Taylor was the tenth president, born in 1790 to a wealthy family. His father was a large estate owner in Virginia, owned many slaves, fought in the Revolutionary War with Washington, Jefferson and others, and served as governor. With superior family conditions and political background, Taylor was very high-profile when he was a child, daring to take his friends to do the right thing with the school teachers.
This personality was encouraged by her mother, who predicted that her son was very different and ambitious, and would definitely become president in the future. Although Taylor was playful and playful, it did not affect his academic performance, and as an adult, he was successfully admitted to the College of William and Mary to study law, became a lawyer after graduation and successfully entered politics.
He was politically savvy and was elected to the state legislature several times, serving as governor and senator. Taylor started out as a Democrat, then joined the Whig Party due to political differences and was expelled from the party for insisting on slavery.
Taylor was initially fortunate to become president of the United States without the ordeal of a series of campaigns. The reason is that the ninth president, Harrison, was sixty-eight years old when he took office, contracted pneumonia on the day of taking office, died only a month later, and he should have become the tenth president of the United States in 1941.
During his tenure, Taylor did a lot of meaningful things and made a good impact at home. He stabilized politics by quelling the rebellion in Rhode Island; consolidating Texas expanded U.S. territory; and ending the Second Seminole War against native Americans, winning more support.
Taylor also established the U.S. Weather Service, which provides weather, hydrological, and other forecasts and warnings, which are of great significance to protecting national property and the safety of ordinary people's lives; he supports the development of the navy, further competition for sea supremacy, and expands the power of the United States to the western Pacific. In 1844, his claws reached out to China and signed the Treaty of Wangxia with the Qing government, which granted consular jurisdiction, one-sided most-favored-nation treatment, and all the benefits of Britain in the Treaty of Nanking.
Taylor gives the impression of being elegant, noble, and charismatic, which is related to his good origins. He is warm and social, and gets along very well with people of the same class. But in the face of the working people, it is as if they have become another person, indifferent, conceited, taciturn, and their performance is often criticized by the world.
Taylor's actions caused displeasure among opponents, so he withdrew from the next presidential campaign, he had two wives, the first of whom was Named Lyticia Christian, and there are few records of their married life, and she had three sons and five daughters, and she died early, only as the first lady for one year.
In March 1845, Taylor and his second wife, Juliet Gardner, who had been married for a year, returned to their hometown, when he was fifty-five years old and Juliet was twenty-five, with a big age difference, but a good relationship, and the two had five sons and two daughters.
Taylor has a wide range of hobbies and can play the violin; his wife loves to play the guitar. After returning to their hometown, the two often played "Sweet Home" together, Qinser and Ming, happy and happy. He could shoot guns, and at a high level, hunting became one of his pastimes on his plantations. He also has a lot of pets with his wife, including canaries, greyhounds and so on.
Even back home, Taylor was not content to be bland, and he was a staunch defender of slavery. As soon as the American Civil War began, it joined the Southern bloc. Relying on the prestige of the former president, he preached his ideas everywhere, advocating an increase in the number of slave states and opposing the abolition of slavery, so he was elected to the Parliament by the Confederacy.
As a northerner, but on the side of the southerners, Taylor was opposed by everyone. Just as they were running around opposing the abolition of slavery, the northern industrial and commercial bourgeoisie confiscated all their family property. Desperate, Taylor decides to take his wife and children to the rebels in the South, to Richmond, where he wants to take up the position they have given him.
Conclusion: But things didn't go well, and Taylor and his family fell ill before they reached the South. Days of travel, combined with the fatigue of the journey and the despair of losing his home, etc., made him unable to move forward any longer, and finally died in a small hotel.
Because he supported the rebellion in the south during his lifetime, he was a member of the Parliament of the Southern League, so he was ostracized and disliked by the northern states. After Taylor's death, the federal government did not hold a memorial service as usual, nor did it erect a monument to commemorate him. A U.S. president chosen by God, the "lucky one" in the eyes of countless people, ended up with a sad end.
