Just read that chapter in The President is Dead! John Adams asked that of his granddaughter, Susanna. "Help me, child, help me."

[RJNorton]

You are a winner, Laurie, as your answer is excellent.

However, the word "Help" was the final word of another President. Who was this?

[Eva Elisabeth]

Garfield?
   

[RJNorton]

That is a very logical answer, Eva, but it was not Garfield.

[Eva Elisabeth]

I could rule out Kennedy, Lincoln, and the living ones, which leaves 34 to eliminate...

[RJNorton]

Correct - it's not Kennedy, Lincoln, or any of the ones still living.

[Eva Elisabeth]

(I must admit I was too curious and meanwhile cheated, so I am off the race.)

[RJNorton]

Hint #1: He was a 20th century President.

[Gene C]

I'll guess Woodrow Wilson

[RJNorton]

Logical guess, Gene, but the correct President came later in the century.
