Answer;

Assassination of President Garfield

Explanation;

President Garfield was shot by Charles J. Guiteau at 9:30 am, in Washington, D.C. less than four months into Garfield's term as the 20th President of the United States. Garfield died eleven weeks later on September 19, 1881. His Vice President, Chester A. Arthur, succeeded Garfield as President.

One factor that encouraged president Arthur to pursue the civil service reform was the fact that President Garfield was shot by a crazed office seeker who thought he was owed a government job due to his support for Garfield in the election.

The assassination of James A. Garfield made it possible for the new president and longtime political spoilsman, Chester Arthur, to combat the patronage system's excesses.

What limits do skeleton have as historical sources
Maurinko [17]

The limits that human remains such as skeletons have as sources of historical information are:

  1. Physical condition of the bones; usually the older, the more fragile and more difficult to study.
  2. The completeness of the skeleton. Usually, skeletons are found incomplete for a number of reasons (anticipated decay of some bones, scavenging animals taking several bones away, etc.) and the more complete, the better.
  3. The information that can be extracted from bones usually limits to: a) the dead person's physical features (height, physical build, gender, etc.); b) evidence of several diseases and/or trauma (injuries breaking bones), c) facial traits (through skull forensic reconstruction) and d) racial group, diet, evidence of toxins through study of he teeth.
