To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As soldier and as congressman, as legislator and as scholar, Mr. Garfield had done enough and nobly for the stations which he filled. But as President Tie had opportunities before him, and a possi- 16 bility of good to do, which his death, had it occurred when he was shot, on the second of July, would have left almost wholly unembraced and unfulfilled. How he would have accomplished, we can only con- jecture and believe. But his survival through these long weeks of suffering may (in another way...) have wrought all, and it may be more than all, that his life would have done. That rounds out his life In a- nobler accomplishment than perhaps his survival would. That makes a benign wholeness in his active and in his passive achievement, which even the most confident believer in his powers might well hesitate to mar by the choice instead for him of four or eight years in the presidential chair. Even a life so rich and prophetic of noble things as his may, perhaps, have been wisely poured out in the passive accomplishment of what his suffering has wrought.
