Morrison. he then gave his age as eighteen years and his appearance certainly indicates that he had reached that age. Isaac Deford his father made application to Judge Drummond for a writ of Habeas Corpus in favor of Henry which the Judge refused - Isaac Deford then returned to Ottawa and with his wife induced Henry to desert - I however had him arrested on the cars and brought back to camp - His parents were aware previous to his being mustered into the service that he had enlisted in my battery, and they made no effort to have him removed until after he had received twenty seven dollars from Government <hr /> and Sixty dollars bounty from LaSalle county. The money he has received from this county would readily induce other men to enlist and his father should be compelled to refund this money to the county for the purpose of enlisting other men before this man should be mustered out. I believe that Isaac Deford is a bad man and I take the liberty of enclosing such evidence as I have at hand in support of my assertions. Henry Deford was mustered into the service by Capt Pomeroy on the 3d day of December last. I would respectfully suggest to your Excellency that the mustering out of this man after having been arrested for desertion would tend to do much injury in camp -- I have the honor to remain Governor Very Respectfully Your Obedient Servt, Edwd C.

Can you send me that? Shall I send you an [illegible] first class mechanic? He will go in to the Setvice only to secure this - Bushnell, Cook & myself have telegraphed the Govr repeatedly upon the subject of this quota - but have obtained no answer - and until <hr /> I can obtain from one of them something sufficiently decisive to satisfy the Bounty Committee, I cannot rely upon fifteen men - The reason of my not reporting progress has been through an entire misunderstanding of one of the Govr dispatches to Bushnell as well as the want of answers to telegrams & letters to Govr & Ajt.

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. Shortly after McCormick’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. 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. The photographs in this collection include portraits of the McCormick Theological Seminary Class of 1896, school professors, and campus buildings. Still Image A static visual representation.

January 13, 1862 To his Excellency Governor Richard Yates Sir, A proposition for the establishment of a National Armory at some suitable point in the North Western States is now occupying the attention of Congress, which is likely to become a law as soon as the location and other particulars of its organization shall have been [fined?] upon. The object of this communication is to solicit your recommendation to the President of myself, for the appointment of Superintendant of the proposed Armory, in the event of its establishment; for which position I conceive myself well qualified by ability, education and experience. I have served both in the line, and in the Quarter Master's Department of the Army during the Mexican War, and have thus become acquainted practically with the regulations and requirements of the Military Service, and the modes of transacting its business with the several departments of the Government. The knowledge and experience thus gained have qualified me to perform the duties of Assistant Quarter Master General of this State, during the <hr /> the present War, under circumstances of considerable difficulty, with a degree of success, of which I leave others to judge. My duties in both this and the Mexican War have connected me with the Ordnance as well as the Quarter Master's Department, so that I am familiar with the duties of either. I have been by profession a Mechanical Engineer, and am both theoretically and practically acquainted with Mechanics, Architecture, Topographical, and Mechanical Draughting, Machine Making &c. I am also well versed in the several branches of Science connected with those pursuits. Should you consider that the interests of the Public service would be advanced by my appointment to the position alluded to, I shall feel greatly obliged if you will address a letter to the President expressive of your sentiments with regard to my eligibility.

I hand you a slip from the Gazette of the 26th, New Editor of which is as much your friend as I am, although his Press is owned chiefly by Washburne & his friends: The Article was written by Father Houghten the former Editor /who is after an office/ and the proof was corrected by Washburne himself: I trust there will be no trouble about your reelection, although it seems to me that Logan, if on the track, will be a foeman worthy of your steel: As to Washburne he is the epitome of selfishness & has fewer friends than any man in America; US Marshall Jones is working for him as I am told: Jones is my friend and a good fellow and I cannot say anything against him, but Jones wishes a renewal of his Lease on the U.S.M.s Office & Washburne will get it for him if any man can, provided he is elected Senator.
