Luckily I did have the issues from that time frame. McKinley was shot on September 6, 1901. The first mention in Mekeel's was the September 19th issue Editorial...
McKinley actually died on September 14th and mentioned in the September 26th issue.
Subsequent issues speculate on when a stamp will be issued commemorating McKinley.
Pretty neat.

A few months ago I purchased a bunch of old Mekeel's Weekly Stamp News from 1901. I was noticing that the Pan American Exposition was being mentioned a lot so I was curious to see how they handled the McKinley Assassination.
