As a teacher of the young his clearness of com- prehension and logical reasoning, his enthusiasm in pursuit of knowledge, together with his won- derful descriptive powers, insured his success. These qualities characterized him through life, and when called on to instruct, convince and sway the multitudes in turbulent times, or to control legislative bodies on momentous occa- sions, he was master of the situation. He did not refuse to ascend the pulpit, and as a devout follower of his Divine Mas...ter become a preacher of our holy religion. I lad he not matured at a time when a great crisis was imminent in our government and especially had not the great moral problem growing out of human slavery been ripe for solu- tion by legislation and war, there is good reason to believe that Garfield would have contented himself with permanently devoting his life to education, literature or the pulpit. In a letter to a friend at the opening of the war, Garfield gives the state of his mind while he 12 — was being metamorphosed from a citizen into a soldier: I have, (he says) had a curious interest in watching the process in my own mind, by which the frabic of my mind is being demol- ished and reconstructed to meet the new condition of affairs.
