When President James A. Garfield was shot on July 2, 1881, his wife, Lucretia Garfield, was in their home in Long Branch, New Jersey. She had gone there to recuperate from health issues and was not present at the train station in Washington, D.C., where the assassination attempt occurred. Lucretia rushed to her husband's side shortly after the shooting and remained with him during his prolonged recovery.
