A sitting president survived two gunshots on July 2, 1881, yet lost eighty pounds over seventy-nine days while surgeons probed and failed to locate a bullet that lay behind his pancreas; how did the men sworn to save him end up doing the damage? Who made the crucial choices that turned a survivable wound into a fatal decline?
In this episode, we follow the timeline from the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station shooting through the subsequent seventy-nine days of care and decline, tracing the actions of the arresting officer, the attending physicians, and inventors who tried to help - and asking whether medical choices, not the bullet, were the real cause of death.
Person: James Abram Garfield
Date: July 2, 1881
Location: Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station, Washington
Event: Two gunshots; one bullet lodged behind the pancreas
Person: Charles Guiteau
- The shooting occurred at 9:30 AM on July 2, 1881, when Charles Guiteau fired two shots at President Garfield.
- One bullet grazed Garfield’s shoulder; the second passed the first lumbar vertebra and lodged behind the pancreas.
- Garfield lost eighty pounds over the seventy-nine days after he was shot.
- Policeman Patrick Kearney arrested Guiteau but initially forgot to take the revolver from him.
- Charles Guiteau borrowed $15 to buy an ivory-handled revolver he said he chose because it would look good in a museum; that revolver later disappeared from the Smithsonian.
