Mend for Circulars, [sjc liu THE PRESIDENT'S DEATH. THE CLOSTNO SCENES—TIIE BEREAVED FAMILY. When Mrs. Garfield was summoned to her husband's bedside by Dr. Bliss, she entered the room caltnly. The President after be told General Swaim that he was suffering from great pain in the region of the heart, never utter ed a word, and soon sunk into a slate of profound quiet so closely bordering unconsciousness as to be almost indis tinguishable from it. He appeared to notice nothing. lie kept his eyes wide open and bent them steadily upon the door, as if expecting some one to enter there. It was apparent that although extremely weak his inind was still clear. The moment the figure of Mrs. Garfield appeared in the doorway there was a perceptible indication of life in the President, and be looked as if he would rise toward the door. The eyes of both met and .Mrs. Garfield for an instant looked down upon the floor, and during the moment her head was in clined a tremor was seen upon her lips, but she immediately straightened her figure again, looked her husband full in the face, and greeting him with a smile moved quietly to a place at his head, on the right side of the bed, and seated herself there. The Secretaries, judging from the steadiness of the President's gaze when Mrs. Garfield entered the room, thought be was in a dazed condition, looking without see ing. They carefully watched him. As Mrs. Garfield passed around the bed President's eyes followed her, and it was evident that he fully recognized her. When she seated herself at his side tne President moved his head tlowly upon the pillow until his face was turned fully toward her. It was the first time he had moved his head since the attack of the heart pains. He made no attempt to speak, but lay look ing closely over his wife's face. Mrs. Garfield reached over and took both his hands in hers. Once or twice he convulsively pressed her hands, as if he would like to say something if he only could. It was evident from Mrs. Garfield's manner that she was under a tremendous strain to keep from break ing down, but no sign was shown on her face. She sat there holding his hands until he died, and he passed away with his head turned towards her, and looking straight into her face, and expired without closing his eyes. His demise was so quiet and impercept ible that ho must have been dead a few seconds before life was known to be ex tinct. When the doctors pronounced him dead Mrs. Garfield uttered no word, but sat perfectly quiet, great tears falling down her face. She was so very still that the doctors, who had been very anxious concerning her abili ty in her weak condition to bear up when the crisis came, thought that she was about to sink to the floor, and moved toward her. She then arose and left the room, going to her own apartment, where she remained alone about five minutes. At the expiration of that time *he repaired again to the bedside of her husband, and exhibited not the least trace of agitation after wards. Subsequently, when the sur geons spoke to her about the disposi tion of the remains, she put and an swered questions in a clear, firm voice, and discussed the arrangements rea sonably. Mrs. Garfield was naturally strongly opposed to the autopsy. She only consented finally whin the case was strongly presented to her in the light of public interest and justice to the surgeons, who had attended the pa tient. At a late hour the surgeons in duced Mrs. Garfield to retire for rest, assuring her that it was a fluty to se cure the refreshment of sleep. She went to her room and remained there all night. Afterwards, Dr. Bliss, whose room was adjoining, says she paced the floor until morning. To-day Mrs. Garfield shows plainly the effects of the reaction from the lorig and terrible struggle she hull uu. defgoni). The physicians say that while she is doinjf as well as could pos sibly be expected under the circum stances, yet they are extremely solici tous about her health Mollie is a del icate girl, ami had been given only the most reassuring news about her fath er's health up to the time of his death. \Yhe» she jeurpeU the truth at last she fainted, and it was a long time before she could be restored. Her health is much affected by the shock. Harry Garfield, who left Williams College, Mass., this morning, left word that his brother, .lames A Garfield, who is confined to his room with a se vere attack of malarial feyw. contract* ed at tjip White House, should not IHJ informed of his father's death until he was better. The toiling of the church IICIIH, and the prevailing excitement aroused his suspicions, and it was thought best by Dr. Hnbbe||, his at. tending jihysirlun, that he be informed of the truth. This was done by Judge Nott. A burst of grief followed, but in: is now bearing the trial bravely, though he is still in a precarious con dition. lie was removed this afternoon to ex- President Hopkins' house SWAIM'S lIItSCIIII'TION OK THE liKATII. Judge Advocate General Swaim, who htys been with ('resident (iarlield ever since tit: wits shot, and who was the only one with the President ivben bo commenced sinking last night, makes the following statement: "It was my nigbt to watch with the Pres ident. 1 had been with him a good deal of the time from three o'clock in the afternoon. A few minutes before ten o'clock I left Colonel Rockwell, with whom 1 had been talking for sojpp momenta in the lower hall, and pro ceeded up stairs to the President's room. On entering I found Mrs. (iar lield silling by his bedside. There were no other persons in the room. I said to her, "how is every thing going?" she replied, "he is sleeping nicely." I then said, "I think you had better go lobed and rest. I asked her what had been prescrilmd for him to take during the night. She replied she did not know, that she had given liillt milk punch at. 8 o'clock, I then said, "if you will wait a moment i will go into the doctors' room and see what is to be BUTLER. PA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 28,1881 given during the night." She then { said, "there is beef tea down stairs. : Daniel knows where to get it." I then ' went into the doctors' room. I found Dr. Bliss there and asked him what j was to be given during the night. He answered, "I think I had better fix up a list and will bring it to you pretty soon." I then went back into the sur -1 geon's room, and had some little con versation with Mrs. Garfield. She felt of the President's hand and laid her hand on his forehead ami said, he seems to lie in good condition, and passed out of the room. I immediately felt his hands, feet and knees. I thought that his knees seemed a little cool, and got a flannel cloth, heated it at the fire, and laid it over his limbs. I also heated another cloth and laid it over his right hand, and then sat down in a chair be j side his bed, I was hardly seated when Dr. Boynton came in and felt the President's pulse. I asked liini ho v it seemed to him. lie replied : "It is not as strong as it was this afternoon, but very good." I said : "He seems to be doing well." "Yes," he answer ed, and passed out. He was not in the room more than two minutes. Short ly after this the President awoke. As he turned his head on awakening I arose and took hold of his hand. I was on the left hand side of the bed as he lay. I remarked: "You have had a nice, comfortable sleep." He then said : 'Oh, Swaim, this terrible pain,' placing his right hand on his breast, about over the region of the heart. I asked him if I could do anything for him. He said 'some water.' I went to the other side of the room and pour ed about an ounce and a half of Poland water into a glass and gave him to drink. He took the iflass in his hand, I raising his head as usual, and drank the water very naturally. I then hand ed the glass to the colored man Daniel, who came in during the time I was getting the water. Afterwards I took a napkin and wiped his forehead, as he usually perspired on awaking. lie then said 'Oh, Swaim, can't you stop this?' and again Oh, Swaim.' I then saw him looking at me with a staring expression. I asked him if he was suf fering much pain, receiving no answer. J repeated the question, with a like re sult. I then concluded he was either dying or was having a severe spasm, and called to Daniel, who was at the door, to tell Dr. Bliss ami Mrs. Gar field to come in immediately, mid glanced at the small clock hanging on the chandelier, nearly over the foot of his bed, and saw it was ten minutes past ten o'clock. I)r. Bliss came in within two or three minutes. I told Daniel to the lißht, a lighted can dle which habitually sat behind a screen near the door. When the light shown full on his face I saw that he was dy ing. When Dr Bliss came in a mo ment after I said, "Doctor, have you any stimulants? He seems to be dy ing.' He took hold of his wrist, as if feeling for his pulse, and suid : 'Yes, be is tlying.' I then said to Daniel, 'Run and arouse the house.' At that moment Col. Rockwell came in, when Dr Bliss said, 'Let us rub his limbs,' which we did. In a very few moments Mrs. GarOeld came in and said, 'What does this mean ?' and a jnoment after wards exclaimed. 'Ob! Why urn I made to suffer this cruel wrong V At 10:35 P. M., the sacrifice was com pleted ; he breathed his last calmly and peacefully. DR. BOYNTON'S ACCOUNT OF TDK DKATH. The preparations for the removal of the effects of the Presidential party are beginning. Attendants and workmen are engaged In packing trunks at the cottage of Private Secretary Brown The extreme emaciation of the Presi dent was a surprise to the undertaker and embalracr. It is possible to clasp the leg above the knee with one hand. There are some doubts whether, if tbo President litis in ntate at Washington, it will be deemed wise to slfow his re mains. Dr. Boynton gives the following ac count of the death scene : "He had been sleeping quietly until about fif teen minutes before his death I step ped into the room to examine his pulse ami found it hail grown a little weak er, but not alarmingly so I remarket! to General Swaim that his pulse hud grown weaker, but nut dangerously wcuk. The President said to Swaim, 'Oh, Swuim, what a terrible pain 1 I have here,' ami he placed his hand upon his breast over tho heart. The doctors and members of the family had by that t'liio gathered uutl 1 and a colored man stood at the door There was scarcely a prcceptible movement anywhere on tlie yuth.rer'a features ami no movements of the limbs. His pulse grew less frequent. Dr. Agnew bent over him and examined the pulse. He found no pulse. I put my oar flown to his heart but discovered no pulsation. Mrs. Garfield planed her head upon tho chest, partly bending over him until after he died. All of us sat there a little while and then we left the room. The first time that Mrs. Garfield broke down in tears was when she was left at the door of her room. She returned in half an hour ami remained with Iter hu.Hhuml till 2 A. M. Dr. Agnew und myself and General Swuim remained for some time ; Secretary liruvvn watched until liiurniny," TDK AUTOPSY, LONG BRANCH, September '2o.—The autopsy on the body of the President was made this afternoon, and was tho most remarkable, perhaps one of t lit; most t borough on record. The meth od of procedure was discussed ami agreed upon. It was concluded to auk all those surgeons who |(in| been offi cial uttondantu upon the President to have with them in all the consultations pertaining to the autopsy, every record ninl comment made by them. They were all submitted to tho criticism of the conference ami openly discussed. During the progress of the surgery of the autopsy every step anil incident was fully noted, discussed und record ed, together with till the opinion - given, at the conclusion of the s'.trgery. This racord is to be printed on letter paper, viil.h very wide spaces between the lines. One or more copies of this print will be furnished to each of the sur geons, who shall write between the lines the result of his study of the case as then made up. At a subse quent conference these commentaries ' to be submitted for general discussion, and the report as agreed upon by the ! majority shall then be printed in the same manner as the previous. Copies of this shall be furnished as before and shall be interlined as before At anoth er conference this second commentary shall be submitted and criticized and the report as then agreed upon by a majority of the conference shall stand as the autopsica! record of the case, and shall be as such published. RESULT OF THE POST MORTEM. The following official bulletin was prepared at 11 to-night by the sur geons who have been in attendance upon the late President: By previous arrangement the post mortem examination of the body of President Garfield was made this after noon in the presence and with the as sistance of Drs. Hamilton, Agnew, Bliss, Barns, Woodward, Iley burn, Andrew 11. Smith, of Elberon, and Acting Assistant Surgeon I). S Lamb, of the Army Medical Museum, Wash ington. The operation was performed by Dr. Lamb. It was found that the ball after fracturing the right eleventh rib had passed through the spinal col umn in front of the spinal canal, frac turing the body of the first" lumbar vertebra, driving a number of small fragments of bone into the adjacent soft parts and lodging just below the pancreas, about two inches and a half to the left of the spine and behind the peritoneum, where it had become com pletely encysted. The immediate cause of death was secondary hemorrhage from one of the mesenteric arteries ad joining the track of the ball, the blood rupturing the peritoneum and nearly a pint escaping into the abdominal cavi ty- This hemorrhage is believed to have been the cause of the severe pains in the lower part of the chest complaining of just before death. An abscess cavity six inches by four in dimensions was found in the vicinity of the gall bladder, lmtween the liver and transverse colon, which were strongly interadherent It did not in volve the substance of the liver, and no communication was 'bund between it ami the wound. A long suppurat ing channel extended from thn external wound between the loin muscles and the right kidney, almost to the right groin This channel, now known to be due HO the burrowing of pus from the wound, was supposed during life to have been the track of the bull. On examination of the organs of the chest evidences of severe bronchitis were found on both sides, with broncho pneumonia of the lower portions of the right lung, and though to much less extent of the left. The lungs contain ed no abscesses and the heart no clots. The liver was enlarged and fatty, but free from abscesses, nor were any found in any other organ, except the left kidney, which contained near its sur face a small abscess about one third of an Inch in diameter. I II reviewing tho history of the case in connection with the autopsy, it is quite evident that tho different suppurating surfaces, and especially tho fractured spongy tissue of the vertebra, furnish sufficient explanation of tho septic con dition which existed. I). W. BLISS, J. K. BARNES, J. J. WOODWARD, KOHERT KKYIICRN, F. 11. HAMILTON, D. HAYES ACNKW, ANDREW 11. SMITII, D. S. LAM 11. The autopsy of tho President's body commenced about five o'clock ami was not concluded until nearly 8. A large crowd of persons assembled at Elberon to hear the result. Dr. Bliss stated tht! autopsy had been a very tedious one, and that the time occupied in searching for the ball alone was nearly three quartern of an hour, The doctor said Mrs. Garfield was feeling much relieved since the autopsy, inasmuch as it resulted in establishing tho fuel that tin; patient's death was inevitable. The doctor stated further that the point of the ball was somewhat blunt, or in a battered condition, caused by the force with which it struck tho rib, while in other respects its original shape was not altered. Dr Bliss took charge of the bullet ami sealed it for preservation until the courts should require its production. The State of Now Jersey has issued a permit for the removal of tho body. .Nil INO "EST IIEI.D, There was considerable discussion over the subject of holding an inquest. Tho Jersey law, it Deems, is very em phatic on the subject, not only in re quiring an inquest but in refusing lo receive a death certificate from phy sicians not registered in the State. The attending physicians. Drs. Agnew i and Hamilton, have not a license to, practice in New Jersey, ami therefore cannot give a certificate of death which can he accepted by the Assessor, who acts like the Board of Health.

CLEVELAND, 0., September 20. Mother Garfield is now at Solon with her daughter, Mrs. I.arabee, A Her ald special from Solon says: Until three tlavs ago full particulars of the situa tion were telegraphed with the great est regularity to friends at Solon. Since thet date only meagre dispatches were sent, and the suspense of the household can only be imagined. Sat urday night and Sunday night Mrs. Larabee aud the President's mother slept together, and the former affirms that Mrs. Garfield did not sleep at all. Her anxiety rendered sleep out of the question. During the last week or two her health has been remarkably good. On Monday evening the only dispatch received reached the Solon of fice at (>:3O o'clock, and was immedi ately delivered. It was: Klbrron, N. J., September 19.—T0 Mrs. Kliza Garfield—After the noon bulletin of tho President's condition there has been no aggravation of symp toms. Since the noon bulletin was issued he has slept most of the time, coughing but little, and with more ease. The sputa continues unchanged, a sufficient amount of nourishment has been taken and retained. Temperature 98.4, pulse 102, respiration iB." During all these days of suspense since July '2d the mother of the Presi dent remained hopeful. She had faith that her noble son would be spared to serve his country and comfort her de clining years. Mr«. Larabee, his sis ter, on the contrary, has had a feeling of discouragement ami fear from the first. Even on tho tiny when ho left Mentor she says her mind was filled with vague forebodings she could not tlrive away. As Garfield went about his farm giving things a farewell look she felt a presentiment that it was a long good-bye. The effect of this tele gram was reassuring, however, and Mrs. Garfield retained with a feeling of quiet cheerfulnes. During tho day she had lieeu constantly busying her self about the house. Mrs. Larabee besought her not to do any work. 'Mother,' she said, 'you will only worry yourself'.' 'Oh, no,' replied the old lady, 'lf am active I shall lie able to sleep better.' Her exaustion, occasioned by lack of rest for two nights previous, induced sleep, which, members of the family say, exceeded in length any previous sleep of the old lady. At five o'clock Tuesday morning the village bell tolled. At six o'clock came this private telegram : 'ELBERON, N. J. September 11).—To Mrs. Eliza Garfield—James died this evening at 10:35. Calmly breathed his life away. I). G. Swaim.' Mrs. Larabee's first thought was os to her mother. The latter was sleep ing calmly, and they did not awake her. Not until 8 o'clock tlid the old lady awuke, having slept ever since 11 p. M. At that hour Mrs. Larabee passed her door with a heavy heart ana found her up, dressed and engaged in her custom of reading the Bible. It was thought best not to break the uews until Mrs. Garfield had eaten breakfast. Oddly enough, the old lady did not insist up on hearing the news until she finished the meal. Then taking the fatal tele gram from the shelf she was about to read, but Miss Ellen took it from her trembling hand. 'Orumlma,' she said, would you be surprised to get bad news this morn ing!" 'Why, I, I don't know,' said the old lady. 'Well, I shoulden't,' said Mrs. Larabee, 'I have been fearing and ex pecting it all the morning.' 'Grandma,' said Ellen, there is had news.' 'ls he dead?' asked the old lady tremulously. 'He is.' The quick tears started in the sensi tive eyes There was a violent parox ysm of grief; no expression of frenzy told of tiie anguish within. 'ls it true?' she asked, with quiv ering 1 i|».«. 'Then the Lord help me, for if he is dead what, shall I do?' She was rendered weak and a little nervous by the annoiicement, anil was obliged once or twice to repair to her room, whore in solitude she might begin to comprehend the awful truth. But she was not contented to reniuin there anil soon returned to the sitting room. About 9:30 o'clock Mrs Gar field was found sitting in a rocking chair waiting for news. The morning paper slut read with eagerness. 'lt cannot be that James is dead,' she murmured. 'I cannot understand it I have no further wish to live, und I cannot, live if it is so.' Although her general health is good at present, many fear her words are prophetic. Mrs. Larubec does not liope otherwise herself. But. feeling keenly, as she docs, her great affliction, never once has she hinted at a lack of faith in the Supremo One that all is not intended for the liest 'lt is provi dential after all,' she said. 'I can firmly believe that God knows liest, ami I must not murmur.' Mrs. Mchitable Trowbridge, the re maining sister of Garfield, was also no tified oi hit* death this morning. Hav ing been sick for several weeks it was feared that this blow might prostrate her, but she bears up better than might bo expected. Both of the sisters appear more un nerved than the aged mother herself. The fortitude of the latter can bo better appreciated when it is rcmeinhnrod that Wednesday of thiu week is her 80th birthday. F'"or about a month HIIO wan visiting Mrs. I'lm bo (Jlopp anil Mrs. Alpha Boynton, in Hiram. About a week ..go she returned to Solon, where she expects to remain with Mr. tintl Mrs Larabee until she is notified to inuko some change It will Is; remem bered that the only brother, of the President is living near Grand Itapiils, Michigan. Since the 1 Ith of Novem- l>or last there have occured five deaths in the fumily, ai follows: Mrs. Haxtie L Palmer, on the 14tb of November; her son Rudolph, on the 10th of Feb ruary: Thomas Garfield, on the 18th of June; Miss Cordelia Arnold, on the 24th of June. Just ten months ago on Monday Thomas Garfield and the lato President celebrated their birthday at a joint festivity in Randall. Their birthdays came on the same day, Gen eral being forty-nine years old and Thomas Garfield seventy-nine. The orphaned sons at Mentor were not informed of their father's death till after breakfast this morning. For a time they wept bitterly, but after ward grew quiet and bore their afflic tion almost philosophically. At Men tor are also Joseph Rudolph, Mrs. Garfield's brother, and her aged father. Both were much affected, yet the re sult was not unexpected to them. THE STORY OF THE CRIME—WHERE, WHEN' A.NH HOW THE FATAL BULLET ENTERED HIS BODY. The shooting occured on the morn ing of Saturday, July 2. The Presi dent, with several meml>ers of bis Cab inet, was about to start on an extended journey to New England. Mrs. Gar field was to join him at New York. He bad been hard wcrked and was weary. He was looking forward to trip to Williams College, at Williams town, Mass., to St. Albans, Vt., to the White Mountains, to the Maine coast and other places with great delight. Secretary Blaine drove with the President from the White House to the Baltimore ami Potomac depot, which their carriage reached at twenty min utes past 9 o'clock. In leaving the car riage the President said to Officer Kearney, standing by: 'How much time have we, officer?' Kearney re plied : 'About ten minutes, sir. As he walked to the ladies' entrance of depot, which entrance is on Sixth street, Secretary Blaine followed. The two gentlemen passed leisurely into the ladies' waiting room, arm-in arin, the President being uoon the left of Mr. Blaine. They had gone but a few steps into the general passenger room when two pistol shots were fired in quick succession from tho rear and to the right of the Secretary. The first shot passed through the right coat sleeve of tho President, inflicting no in jury. The second and fatal shot enter ed bis body above the third rib. When the President was struck he lumed sharply, looking over his right shoulder. Before he could make an other motion he sank heavily to the floor. The blood spurted profusely and the space around him was red. Mr. Blaine turned towards the ussassin, but seeing that lie was in tho grasp of an officer he gave his attention to the victim of the shot Tho President was carried quickly to a room in tho second story of tho depot building. He re mained there for about one hour, when ho was driven in a police ambulance to tho White llouso. Tho ambulance was preceded by a carriage, which cleared tho way, and a mounted guard sur rounded tho carriage, for tho |iouplo on Pennsylvania avenue did not then know the burden borne. Though tho President had Haid, short ly after receiving the wound, that ho believed it to be fatal, an he approach ed the White House ho lifted his arm and saluted those who in affright presid ed around. Ho was lifted from tho am bulance and tenderly carried to a (deep ing chamber in the northeastern corner of the building. lie then paused into tho hands of his surgeons. At ■'! o'clock in tho afternoon •ho Hiiid: 'ltlaino, what motive do you think that man could have had in try ing to assassinate mo 3" Mr. Maine replied: 'I do not know, Mr. Presi dent. Ho says he had uo motive. He must bo insane.' To this the Presi dent said- 'I suppose bethought it would be a glorious thing to emulate the pirate chief.' Shortly afterwards ho t aid to one of his sons: 'Don't you be alarmed, Jimmy ; the upper story is all right; it is only the hull that is a little damaged.' Towrrd four o'clock, when the evidence of internal hommor rliago became unmistakable and all the indications seemed to point to his dis solution, the President asked Dr. Hliss what the prospects were. Ho said: 'Are they bad, doctor!" Don't bo afraid; tell me frankly. I am ready for the worst.' 'Mr. President,' re plied Dr. Hliss, 'your condition is ex tremely critical. I do not think you can live many hours ' 'God's will be done, doctor; I'm ready to go if my time has come.' While at tho depot tho President had caused the following to In* tele graphed to Mrs. (jarlield, who was at Klberon : Mni. (laijithl, KUtrron, New Jrrnry : Tlif I'rtmidc-nt wl«tn'« me to »nv to you from him 11 1■■ t 11•- liiih Ihm'li nrriounly hurt how xeriouily he cnniiot yet Miy. lie in hlinitelf nml liojh>« you will rumr to him noon, lie neurit lux lovejto you. A. F. ItCH'KWKI.I,. Upon receipt of tho news, of more dreadful import to her than to any oth er, Mrs. (Jarlield left Long liranch on a special train which ran through to WuFliington in live hours and thirty five minutes.

Ho still carried his pistol in his hand. It was a California re volver, of large calibre, with a bono handle. The ball that entered the Presidents i»o<ly was known as calibre 41.

NO. 44 violence at the bands of the populace. The District Attorney had very little difficulty in obtaining from Guiteautbe facts of hid career. A great deal was taken down in short-hand from the lips of the prisoner, lie remained under strong guard, and for several weeks was ignorant of the President's condi tion. At no time since the assassina tion was he certain whether his victim was alive or dead. He frequently ex pressed answer at the refusal of the guards to tell him of what was going on. He asked for pen, ink and paper with which to write his life, but all such requests were refused. Once he made a rude knife from material found in his shoe, but it was discovered aud removed. He was given no opportuni ty to commit suicide. On July 19 Mr. Corkbill appeared before the Criminal Court in Washington and asked that the grand jury be discharged until Sep tember, as it was unnecessary to hold them longer in the President's case. He presented a letter from the Presi dent's physicians, in which they said: 'While we anticipate recovery it is not yet possible to assert with confidence that his injuries may not yet prove fa tal.' The jury were then discharged for similar reasons. On Sunday afternoon, September 11, Sergeant Mason, of Battery B, Second Artillery, when relieving the guard at the iail, shot at Guiteau through the window of the cell and came near kill ing him. The ball grazed the assas sin's head and lodged in the cell wall. Mason was at once arrested and con fined at the Arsenal. Subsequently tiuiteau was removed to another cell, built for his confinement, and there he now remains. RATES OF POSTAGE.
