The Hannibal Journal, Thursday, October 12, 1848 
Death of the Hon. Wm. J. Graves. -- A widely extended circle of admiring and enthusiastic friends 
will hear with most poignant sorrow of the death of this distinguished gentleman.  After months of 
most extraordinary suffering, he expired last Friday morning in Louisville.

This news says the Louisville Courier, will affect the Whig party throughout the Union with the 
profoundest sorrow, for there were few men in the country more universally esteemed by his party 
than Wm. Jordan Graves was.
