Trivia
Charles Guiteau was offered the choice of a pistol with a wooden handle or a more expensive ivory handled one. He was not able to afford the ivory one, as he was living virtually destitute in Washington D.C. by that point. The vendor agreed to drop the price.

Goofs
Chester Arthur makes a mention that he loves the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC. Cherry blossom trees were not in DC until 1910 when the were given as a gift from Japan during the Taft administration, almost 30 years later after these events took place.
