From News of the Weird - 185 years ago today- July 4, 1826, our 2nd and 3rd Presidents (John Adams and Thomas Jefferson DIED within hours of each other on the 50th anniversary of the Declaration! The odds on that are incalculable .. Adams last words were "Jefferson survives", but TJ had preceeded him by a few hours.
5 years later, President #5, James Monroe, died in NYC on July 4th. AMAZING!
