Gloom and Rumors At the White House 1881
A June report from Washington contrasts the President's improving health with lingering doubts about the severity of his wound. The piece notes Maj. Swaim's quips, Guiteau's confinement, and public fear, while detailing other far flung incidents including lightning deaths, murders, drownings, and fires across multiple states.
Doctor Gar nett assessing President wound outcome
Dr. Garnett, one of Washington’s ablest physicians, says he sees no evidence the assassin’s ball reached the liver or abdominal cavity. He cites anatomical angles to argue the missile likely deflected toward the spine, not causing a major internal injury.
