Garfield lingered on through the summer and died in Elberon, New Jersey on September 19, 1881. His vice president, Chester A. Arthur , was sworn in as president at 2 a. m. on September 20, 1881. Extra credit : It is said that Garfield used to amuse friends by simultaneously writing Latin with one hand and Greek with the other. Garfield joins Warren G.

Fatherless at two, he later drove canal boat teams, somehow earning enough money for an education. He was graduated from Williams College in Massachusetts in 1856, and he returned to the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute (later Hiram College) in Ohio as a classics professor. Within a year he was made its president. Garfield was elected to the Ohio Senate in 1859 as a Republican. During the secession crisis, he advocated coercing the seceding states back into the Union.
