Answer:
1 The ‘Scarlet Pimpernel’ is the name used by Sir Percy Blakeney, an Englishman who uses many clever disguises (=ways of changing your clothes and appearance so that people do not recognize you) in order to help French people from a high social class to escape from France, and from the possibility of having their heads cut off by the guillotine during the French Revolution. There is a well-known short poem about him, which begins with the words ‘They seek him here, they seek him there...’, and is about how difficult it is to find the Scarlet Pimpernel.

Explanation: From to 1851 to 1854 he studied at the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute [later named Hiram College] in Hiram, Ohio. He then moved to Williams University in Williamstown, Massachusetts, where he was a member of the Delta Epsilon brotherhood. He graduated in 1856 as an exceptional student who excelled in all subjects except chemistry. He later taught classical languages at the Eclectic Institute during the academic year 1856-1857 and was appointed director of the institute from 1857 until 1860. Garfield decided that academic life was not for him and he studied law on his own. He was admitted to the Ohio Bar in 1860. As an anecdote, it should be noted that he was an amateur mathematician and published an original proof of the Pythagorean Theorem [New England Journal of Education]
