U.S. President Warren G. Harding dies in office at age 57 in San Francisco, California. In the Palace Hotel, Harding is weak but appears to be improving from his fatique; doctors tell him he can sit up in bed. At around 7:30 in the evening local time, his wife Florence is reading to him an article called "A Calm Review of a Calm Man," a flattering review of him in The Saturday Evening Post. She pauses and he tells her, "That's good. Go on, read some more." Those would be his last words. A few seconds later, he collapses back onto the bed, gasping. Doctors are unable to revive him. He is declared dead a few minutes later. He most likely dies of a heart attack, although his family does not request an autopsy. He was born Warren Gamaliel Harding on November 2, 1865, in Blooming Grove, Ohio. (He was a member of the Ohio Senate, the Lieutenant Governor of Ohio, and a U.S. Senator from Ohio before taking office as U.S. President on March 4, 1921.)

At the time of President Harding's death, U.S. Vice President Calvin Coolidge is in Plymouth Notch, Vermont, visiting his family home, which has neither electricity nor a telephone. By the time he receives the message that President Harding had died, it is already past midnight (local time) the next day, August 3.
