MISCELLANIA
President Monroe's second term was not so
tranquil and at the end, the country was in
political turmoil largely because Monroe did
not want to hurt feelings of any of his friends
by supporting only one of them as his suc-
cessor.
When he died on July 4, 1831 - the third
President to die on July 4 - John Quincy
Adams noted, "... his Administration . . .
was a time of great prosperity, and his per-
sonal popularity was unrivalled. Yet no one
regretted the termination of his Administra-
tion, and less of popular veneration followed
him into retirement than had accompanied
all his predecessors ..."
