THE LIFE OF JAMES GARFIELD By: Seth JarvisA11/14/15

Biography  Born in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, on November 19, 1831  Graduated from Williams College in 1856  On November 11, 1858, Garfield married Lucretia Rudolph, a former pupil.  Had 7 Children  Assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau on July 2, 1881, and died from an infection and internal hemorrhage on September 19, 1881 Interesting Facts: 1. James Garfield was the last of the “Log Cabin Presidents” 2. His father was a wrestler and died when he was only 2 years old 3. President Garfield’s mother was the first president’s mother to attend her son’s inauguration.

Political, Business, and Military Experience  Became a Brigade General at the age of 31  Elected to Ohio Senate in 1859  Became an instructor and administrator at Eclectic Institute  Member of the Republican Party  Served in the House of Representatives

Presidency  Garfield was elected President in 1881  He ran against General Winfield Scott Hancock and won by a margin of only 10,000 votes  Vice President: Chester A. Arthur Accomplishments/facts 1. Only served for 200 days 2. Reformed the post office system 3. Appointed several former slaves to government jobs, including Frederick Douglas

Life After Presidency James A. Garfield was assassinated and later died while he was still president. Therefore, he was unable to accomplish anything after his presidency.

SUMMARY James A. Garfield’s presidency, while short, was a good one. His greatest strength was his perseverance when it came to abolition. He recommended a universal education system that would be funded by the federal government and was designed to empower African Americans. I believe that President James A. Garfield was a good president because in the time that he served, he was still able to accomplish some of his goals.
