Extractions: You are in: Virtual War Museum US Civil War Hall James A. Garfield JAMES ABRAM GARFIELD On November 11, 1858, James A. Garfield married Lucretia Rudolph, his fellow student at Geauga Academy. The couple had seven children: Eliza A. Garfield (1860-63); Harry A. Garfield (1863-1942); James R. Garfield (1865-1950); Mary Garfield (1867-1947); Irvin M. Garfield (1870-1951); Abram Garfield (1872-1958); and Edward Garfield (1874-76). James A. Garfield was thirty-two years old when he entered congress. In December 1863, he started his first term as a representative for his home district. He was reelected for eight successive terms to the same office. His military reputation had preceded him and secured for him a place in the Committee on Military Affairs, then the most important in congress. Garfield was a loyal Republican. He favored a policy of hard money the principle that all paper money issued by the government should be secured by gold or silver. After the Civil War he sided with the radical faction of the Republican Party, supporting seizure of the property of those who had served the Confederacy and demanding voting rights for blacks. In 1865, Garfield, at his own request, was changed from the Committee on Military Affairs to the influential Ways and Means Committee. He soon became a power in his party. In 1876, James G. Blaine of Massachusetts resigned his seat to serve in the Senate. James A. Garfield assumed the Republican leadership in the House. During his rise to power, Garfield was connected to two incidents that tarnished his record, one involving an alleged bribe to delay a congressional investigation of Credit Mobilier Company, which had made illegal profits fro government contracts. The other involved accepting fees from a company trying to obtain a paving contract for Washington, D.C. Garfield denied all charges but remained his own harshest critic that he had not shown his usual cautiousness in avoiding any connection with any matter which could come up for congressional review. His Ohio constituents knew both scandals in 1874, but he was reelected for another term.

Extractions: James Abram Garfield, the future president of the United States, was born on November 19, 1831 in Orange, Ohio. He was born in a log cabin that is now the site of the Moreland Hills Police Department. His father died when Garfield was four years old and he earned money for his education working as a farmer, carpenter and driving canal boat teams. After graduating from Williams College in Massachusetts, he returned to Ohio and became a professor at Hiram College. Within a year he was named president of the college. Garfield was elected to the Ohio Senate in 1859 and served as an officer during the Civil War. He lived at "Lawnfield," his country home and farm in Mentor, Ohio. In 1863, he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives where he served for seventeen years as a leading Republican. Although he was later elected to the U.S. Senate, his nomination as a candidate for the presidency at the 1880 Republican convention sent him to the White House instead of Congress. James A. Garfield served as president for only 200 days. While on his way to his Williams College reunion, he was shot while at the Washington, D.C. railroad station by an attorney, Charles Guiteau, who was angry because he had not received an appointment he was seeking. President Garfield was hit by two bullets and was rushed to the White House for medical care. Several doctors attempted to remove the bullet that had lodged itself inside Garfields body. They would probe inside the wound with unwashed fingers, causing the infection to worsen. They even attempted to use a metal detector to find the bullet. Unfortunately, Garfield was lying on a mattress with metal springs and no one thought to move him off the mattress. The wound was deep and became very infected and President Garfield died when he suffered a massive heart attack on September 19, 1881. He had lived for 80 days after the shooting but probably would have survived the wound if doctors had left him alone.
