I wonder if Hagelin remembers this:

http://www.u-s-history.com/pages/h1204.html

"In 1769, at the height of his popularity and influence, Otis was
pulled from the public stage. He had infuriated a Boston custom-house
official with a vicious newspaper attack; the official beat Otis on
his head with a cane. For the remainder of his life, Otis was subject
to long bouts of mental instability. He was unable to participate in
public affairs and spent most of his time wandering through the
streets of Boston, enduring the taunts of a populace that had quickly
forgotten his contributions. Otis was struck and killed by lightning
in May 1783."
