"They tried to oust Arthur. He also burned all his papers just before his death. Imagine that. "
LOL... They tried to disqualify him in 1880. He burned the papers after he had completely finished his term in 1886.
Didn't seem he was very concerned about anything in those papers keeping him out of office.

Arthur burned so as not to be labeled a usurper.
