"Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

“’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—

Only this and nothing more.”"

Before Edgar died, he was in a gutter, drunk out of his mind, and in different clothes on October 3rd, 1849. 4 days later, he was pronounced dead, but. . . How did he die? It's still a mystery in the 21st century, but that doesn't mean there aren't theories. One theory By Natasha Geiling on the site Smithsonian.com, says that it was a rainy night on October 3rd of 1845 when Joseph W. Walker, a compositor for Baltimore Sun, had stumbled upon Edgar in the gutter in front of Gunner's hall. Edgar was semi-conscious, but still very loopy from being intoxicated. Joseph then, being very worried about Poe's heath, then sent a letter to Dr. J.E. Snodgrass (Photo below), asking for help.
