Thinking about Death by Lightning as a work of fiction and not a piece of historical media — kindness and fairness really runs through it. Garfield gets to where he is by trying to make the world more fair. Guiteau thinks the world needs to be kinder to him, but his sense of kindness and fairness is him getting exactly what he wants all the time. Arthur’s whole character turns around because Garfield is willing to give him a second chance.

From James A. Garfield's diary, December 2, 1859:

"A dark day for our country. John Brown is to be hung at Charleston, Va. I have no language to express the conflict of emotion in my heart. I do not justify his acts. By no means. But I do accord to him, and I think every man must, honesty of purpose and sincerity of heart.

When I reflect upon his devoted Christian character, his love of freedom drawn from God's Word, and from his Puritan ancestors, his sufferings in Kansas, his bold and daring courage, mixed with mercy, the humane purpose of his heart in going to Virginia, his gallant treatment of those he had in his power, his neglect of his own safety, his frankness on the trial, his coolness and undisturbed serenity when the terrible sentence was pronounced... himself, a gray-haired veteran standing on the fatal scaffold surrounded as he is at this moment by 2,000 American soldiers, and to ensure his death no friends to stand by him, who is about to die because his heart beat was oppressed--when I remember all this, it seems as though God's warning angel would sound through that infatuated assembly the words of a patriot of other and better days, the words 'I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, and his Justice will not always slumber.'

Brave man, Old Hero, Farewell. Your death shall be the dawn of a better day. Servitium esto damnatum [slavery be damned]."
