James Abram Garfield served as the 20th president of the United States from March 4, 1881, until his death on September 19, 1881, just six months into his presidency. Garfield was shot by assassin Charles J. Guiteau and died two months later. He had previously served as a lawyer, Civil War general, and nine-term member of the United States House of Representatives. Garfield is notable for being the only sitting member of the House to be elected president. He had also been elected to the U.S. Senate by the Ohio General Assembly but declined the position when he became president-elect.
