He was beginning a 2-week vacation. First he would visit Cyrus W. Field, at Field's estate in Dobbs Ferry and Irvington, NY. Field made his fortune in paper and his fame in laying the first transatlantic cable. From there Garfield was to attend the commencement at Williams College (his alma mater), then on to New Hampshire, Maine and Boston.
