                  <text>&lt;p&gt;The first classes at the McCormick Theological Seminary took place in a log cabin in Indiana in 1829. During the Civil War the school relocated to Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. In 1859 Chicago entrepreneur and Presbyterian layman Cyrus H. McCormick and his wife, Nettie Fowler McCormick, became the seminary's major financial patrons. The relationship between the McCormick family and the school remained well into the twentieth century.&amp;nbsp;Shortly after McCormick&amp;rsquo;s death in 1884, the school was renamed McCormick Theological Seminary. Several campus buildings are named for McCormick family members including McCormick Hall, Fowler Hall, and Virginia Library. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination in 1968, seminary faculty and students were active in the civil rights movement and provided assistance to displaced and injured participants. The seminary relocated to Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood in 1975.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The photographs in this collection include portraits of the McCormick Theological Seminary Class of 1896, school professors, and campus buildings.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir, Your kind letter dated July 27th in answer to mine of the 13th inst. was duly received I hope you will excuse my writing again, but a change of locality and circumstances rendered it nesessary; I have been transferred to the 98th Company 2nd Battallion Veteran Reserve Corps stationed at this place commanded by Lieut. Cooper.  If there is to be another Commission given in this command or in the companies now forming for the V.R.C I should like a position in one or the other as reference I will name Surgeon Richd R. Hale of this Hospital.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As one of the board of medical examiners I have thought it my duty to call your attention to the fact that Dr. Metcalf is acting as Surgeon to Col. Cook's regiment without having passed an examination before the board.  By your directions the Secretary of the board notified him of the necessity of coming forward for examination, but he failed to appear.  Without any feeling of personal interest in the matter I submit, most respectfully, to you to decide whether all should not alike obey
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the law in this case as well as all other cases of Special or general enactments.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles Ryan
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To his Excellency
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor of Ills.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chas Ryan MD.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in re Dr. Metcalf
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;answered.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As one of the board of medical examiners I have thought it my duty to call your attention to the fact that Dr. Metcalf is acting as Surgeon to Col. Cook's regiment without having passed an examination before the board.  By your directions the Secretary of the board notified him of the necessity of coming forward for examination, but he failed to appear.  Without any feeling of personal interest in the matter I submit, most respectfully, to you to decide whether all should not alike obey
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the law in this case as well as all other cases of Special or general enactments.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles Ryan
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To his Excellency
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor of Ills.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chas Ryan MD.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in re Dr. Metcalf
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;answered.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Personal&lt;/u&gt;  Collector's Office,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;January 10th 1865.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most sincerely and heartily do I congratulate you upon your election to the Senate.  I was well aware that your popularity was such that nothing could prevent your election, but I had reason to believe that intrigues were on foot in Illinois to defeat it, and I was therefore over-joyed when I heard that you were duly nominated and elected.  I have taken a warm interest in Illinois politics for some time, and have been greatly pleased with the active, patriotic part you have assumed in behalf of Lincoln and Liberty.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You may remember that I wrote
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to you on the same subject a few weeks ago.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That malicious and contemptible Copperhead paper, the &lt;u&gt;World&lt;/u&gt; of this city, yesterday re-published the unkind and ungentlemanly remarks of the Chicago Tri&lt;u&gt;bu&lt;/u&gt;ne on your message, accompanied by slander too vile to be repeated.  I trust, Gov. Yates, you will prosecute the editor for slander; no punishment a court could allow would be too severe for him.  But, after all, it is perhaps as well that no notice should be taken of the article.  The &lt;u&gt;World&lt;/u&gt; is read by Copperheads alone: no honest Union man takes it.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I want, Governor Yates, to have you consider me one of your Eastern friends, and to permit me as such
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to write to you often, and do what I can to keep you fully posted in regard to party movements at the East.  I want to be considered one of your true and reliable friends, and I assure you most sincerely I shall do all I can to merit your consideration.  We you not grant me this favor?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am of the opinion that if Gov. Seward retires from the Cabinet on the 4th of March he will go to the Senate in place of Gov. Morgan, who will resign to become Secretary of the Treasury.  Such is the understanding here.  I think it is beyond question that Senator Morgan will be the next Secretary of the Treasury.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From what I can learn 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Hon. Montgomery Blair, of Mld., will be the new minister to France.&lt;/u&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The He&lt;u&gt;ral&lt;/u&gt;d of this morning asserts that Gen. Butler has been ordered to report at his home, Lowell, Mass, an order equivalent to his retirement from the service.  Whether the news is true or not, I cannot say.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I can hear from you at your earliest convenience I shall esteem an especial personal favor.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With great Respect,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sincerely Yours,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles S Bartles.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon. Richard Yates,

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;June 17th./62
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To His Excellency--
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Richard Yates
.
Governor of Illinois,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir:--
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would call your attention to the fact, that I have been a citizen of the State of Illinois, for several years, residing in Richland County.--that I moved to Mound City, with my family, the 19th of March, 1862. &amp;amp; entered into contract the same day, as one of the citizen physicians to the U. S. General Hospital. Today--I offered my vote--"Against New Constitution," which was rejected by two of the Judges, (Thos Kirk, &amp;amp; W. O. Watts.) upon the ground of my being in Government employ, &amp;amp; consequently not entitled to the rights of citizenship. Two weeks ago- I voted here - at the municipal election. Judge Kirk then decided that I was a citizen. (I voting for him.) but the same man, (Kirk) now deciding that I am not a citizen.--Again, an employee, in this Hospital, who came here since I have, was allowed to vote--he voting for the constitution. And again, as I am informed, fifteen U. S. soldiers were told they could vote for "New Constitution," but after ascertaining they would all vote against it, the judges suddenly discovered that soldiers had not the right of suffrage. We would also state--that W. O. Watts, one of the acting judges, has his family in Kentucky, &amp;amp; that they removed there more than six months ago, &amp;amp; by many he has not been
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;

If it is necessary--we can give the names of parties here alluded to- we can make affidavit as to the truth of our assertion. We then ask:- Shall citizens of Illinois be disfranchised by political tricksters, because they do their country service, &amp;amp; choose to have a thinking mind of their own? Shall every knave stand at the polls, &amp;amp; dictate to freemen--who shall exercise the rights of citizenship? - Now, Sir, I desire to have you lay this before the proper authorities, &amp;amp; have my note recorded against an infamous measure. In my opinion - had I voted for the "New Constitution," my vote would have been received. As the election has been conducted in Mound City, this day--it is a fraud upon the rights  of citizens of Illinois, --upon free-born Americans.--A copy of this communication has been furnished the judges.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectfully Yours,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles Boyd, M. D.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We the undersigned contract physicians of the U. S. General Hospital, of Mound City, have reason to believe the above statement to be correct. Our votes were also rejected by the same judges.

Governor of Illinois,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir:--
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would call your attention to the fact, that I have been a citizen of the State of Illinois, for several years, residing in Richland County.--that I moved to Mound City, with my family, the 19th of March, 1862. &amp;amp; entered into contract the same day, as one of the citizen physicians to the U. S. General Hospital. Today--I offered my vote--"Against New Constitution," which was rejected by two of the Judges, (Thos Kirk, &amp;amp; W. O. Watts.) upon the ground of my being in Government employ, &amp;amp; consequently not entitled to the rights of citizenship. Two weeks ago- I voted here - at the municipal election. Judge Kirk then decided that I was a citizen. (I voting for him.) but the same man, (Kirk) now deciding that I am not a citizen.--Again, an employee, in this Hospital, who came here since I have, was allowed to vote--he voting for the constitution. And again, as I am informed, fifteen U. S. soldiers were told they could vote for "New Constitution," but after ascertaining they would all vote against it, the judges suddenly discovered that soldiers had not the right of suffrage. We would also state--that W. O. Watts, one of the acting judges, has his family in Kentucky, &amp;amp; that they removed there more than six months ago, &amp;amp; by many he has not been
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;considered a citizen of this state, since last winter, &amp;amp; yet--he voted. If it is necessary--we can give the names of parties here alluded to- we can make affidavit as to the truth of our assertion. We then ask:- Shall citizens of Illinois be disfranchised by political tricksters, because they do their country service, &amp;amp; choose to have a thinking mind of their own? Shall every knave stand at the polls, &amp;amp; dictate to freemen--who shall exercise the rights of citizenship? - Now, Sir, I desire to have you lay this before the proper authorities, &amp;amp; have my note recorded against an infamous measure. In my opinion - had I voted for the "New Constitution," my vote would have been received. As the election has been conducted in Mound City, this day--it is a fraud upon the rights  of citizens of Illinois, --upon free-born Americans.--A copy of this communication has been furnished the judges.

                  <text>Charles Samuel Deneen (Republican) served as a one-term member of the Illinois House of Representatives beginning in 1892. He was born in Edwardsville, Illinois, and grew up in Lebanon, Illinois, where his parents were among the founders of McKendree College. Deneen graduated from McKendree College and then attended Union College of Law (now known as Northwestern University Law School). He served as an attorney for the Chicago Sanitary District from 1895-1896 and State&amp;rsquo;s Attorney for Cook County from 1896-1904. In 1904, Deneen was elected to the first of two terms as Illinois Governor where he was a strong supporter of education issues and the Illinois Waterway. Deneen served one term as the U. S. Senator from Illinois (1925-1931). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of Charles Deneen attending events, including the Illinois State Fair, the dedication of the Illinois Monument at Andersonville Prison, and the Madison County Centennial. Family photos of his wife, Bina Day Maloney, and four children (Charles A. Deneen, Dorothy Deneen Blow, Frances Deneen Birdsall, and Bina Day Deneen House) and images of McKendree College professors also appear in this collection.</text>

                  <text>Charles Samuel Deneen (Republican) served as a one-term member of the Illinois House of Representatives beginning in 1892. He was born in Edwardsville, Illinois, and grew up in Lebanon, Illinois, where his parents were among the founders of McKendree College. Deneen graduated from McKendree College and then attended Union College of Law (now known as Northwestern University Law School). He served as an attorney for the Chicago Sanitary District from 1895-1896 and State&amp;rsquo;s Attorney for Cook County from 1896-1904. In 1904, Deneen was elected to the first of two terms as Illinois Governor where he was a strong supporter of education issues and the Illinois Waterway. Deneen served one term as the U. S. Senator from Illinois (1925-1931). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of Charles Deneen attending events, including the Illinois State Fair, the dedication of the Illinois Monument at Andersonville Prison, and the Madison County Centennial. Family photos of his wife, Bina Day Maloney, and four children (Charles A. Deneen, Dorothy Deneen Blow, Frances Deneen Birdsall, and Bina Day Deneen House) and images of McKendree College professors also appear in this collection.</text>

                  <text>Charles Samuel Deneen (Republican) served as a one-term member of the Illinois House of Representatives beginning in 1892. He was born in Edwardsville, Illinois, and grew up in Lebanon, Illinois, where his parents were among the founders of McKendree College. Deneen graduated from McKendree College and then attended Union College of Law (now known as Northwestern University Law School). He served as an attorney for the Chicago Sanitary District from 1895-1896 and State&amp;rsquo;s Attorney for Cook County from 1896-1904. In 1904, Deneen was elected to the first of two terms as Illinois Governor where he was a strong supporter of education issues and the Illinois Waterway. Deneen served one term as the U. S. Senator from Illinois (1925-1931). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of Charles Deneen attending events, including the Illinois State Fair, the dedication of the Illinois Monument at Andersonville Prison, and the Madison County Centennial. Family photos of his wife, Bina Day Maloney, and four children (Charles A. Deneen, Dorothy Deneen Blow, Frances Deneen Birdsall, and Bina Day Deneen House) and images of McKendree College professors also appear in this collection.</text>

                  <text>Charles Samuel Deneen (Republican) served as a one-term member of the Illinois House of Representatives beginning in 1892. He was born in Edwardsville, Illinois, and grew up in Lebanon, Illinois, where his parents were among the founders of McKendree College. Deneen graduated from McKendree College and then attended Union College of Law (now known as Northwestern University Law School). He served as an attorney for the Chicago Sanitary District from 1895-1896 and State&amp;rsquo;s Attorney for Cook County from 1896-1904. In 1904, Deneen was elected to the first of two terms as Illinois Governor where he was a strong supporter of education issues and the Illinois Waterway. Deneen served one term as the U. S. Senator from Illinois (1925-1931). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of Charles Deneen attending events, including the Illinois State Fair, the dedication of the Illinois Monument at Andersonville Prison, and the Madison County Centennial. Family photos of his wife, Bina Day Maloney, and four children (Charles A. Deneen, Dorothy Deneen Blow, Frances Deneen Birdsall, and Bina Day Deneen House) and images of McKendree College professors also appear in this collection.</text>
