#14: James Garfield
The 20th President, James Garfield, is known for having the second shortest presidential term after William Henry Harrison. His term was cut short (only 199 days) because he was assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau. Knowing this, what should be a photo of a teenager almost has an ominous ring to it.

This photo was taken circa 1847. During that time, Garfield left his home and found work managing the mules of a canal boat. Things moved faster back then, including Presidents’ terms.
