- William Henry Harrison (Wikiquote)
William Henry Harrison (February 9, 1773 – April 4, 1841) was the ninth president of the United States. Harrison first gained national fame as a war hero, defeating American Indians at the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811 and earning the nickname “Tippecanoe” (or “Old Tippecanoe”). Harrison died exactly one month into his term, making his presidency briefer than any before or since. He was also the first U.S. president to die in office.
- Spring (season) (Wikipedia)
Spring, also known as springtime, is one of the four temperate seasons, succeeding winter and preceding summer. There are various technical definitions of spring, but local usage of the term varies according to local climate, cultures and customs. When it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere, it is autumn in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa. At the spring (or vernal) equinox, days and nights are approximately twelve hours long, with daytime length increasing and nighttime length decreasing as the season progresses until the Summer Solstice in June (Northern Hemisphere) and December (Southern Hemisphere).
