EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment in history as a group of men exit Francklyn Cottage after the tragic death of President Garfield in 1881. The somber expressions on their faces tell a story of loss and grief, as they carry slips of paper that read "Self Exoneration." These men, likely President Garfield's physicians, are seen leaving the scene where their patient took his last breath. The image symbolizes an end to all disagreement, as the men hold onto their beliefs and theories surrounding Garfield's medical treatment. Three figures on the left side of the photograph clutch papers labeled "Private Theory," "Temperance Ideas," and "Power of Prayer," possibly representing physicians who were dismissed when it seemed like Garfield was recovering. This historical snapshot encapsulates the political turmoil and uncertainty that surrounded President Garfield's untimely death. It serves as a reminder of the power struggles and conflicting opinions that can arise in times of crisis. As we reflect on this moment frozen in time, we are reminded of the fragility of life and the importance of unity in facing adversity. The legacy of President Garfield lives on through this powerful image, immortalizing a chapter in American history that will never be forgotten.
