Death

Harding went to bed early on the evening of July 27, 1923, a few hours after giving a speech at the University of Washington. Later that night, he called for his physician Charles E. Sawyer, complaining of pain in the upper abdomen. He died on August 2.

His wife dies in 1924. Harding's personal physician, Sawyer, dies a few months after his prominent patient. Also shortly after Harding, his personal advisor, Colonel Felder, died; so do John King, intimate partner of Harding patron Daugherty, and Daugherty's associate Hateley.
