From there he proceeded to two other points, mus- tering in soldiers, and on May 20 closed this work and drew a voucher for' $130. His pay had been at the rate of $3 a day, but he did not re- celve the money umtil long after, | Out of funds, lonesome, poor, and dejected, Captaid Grant return to Galena. Offering his services then to the adjutant general at Washington and receiving no response, he came back to Springfield. His reception differed little from that on his first visit. _Governor Yates, it is said, did not think of giving him a command. Without political influence and with- out a chance with the orators and other wire-pullers who crowded about, he was considered a “military ' dead-beat” by politicians, and a “de- cayed soldier” by citizens, it is record- ed by the historian. , “It is strange,' he told a friend. “that a man of my experience and education cannot secure a command.'’ With that he left Illinois. Hg tried fn Ohlo, and was almost obtained for the service by that state by offer of the command of the Twelfth Ohio, but a telegram drew him back to Springfleld. “Will vou accept the command of the Seventh District reg- iment?" was the dispatch which pro: Lcured the future president his en- trance into the conflict. It came, al- though belated, from Governor Yates. This regiment was composed of lusty, bold young men, who Hhad abused the lax discipline of tgeir first commander. One of them knocked Colonel Granf's hat off. “Young man, that's not very polite,”” was Grant's only comment at the time, but step by step he- tightened discipline until insubordination was dead and the regi- ment was a military unit ready for service, The first call came to Illinois from Geperal Fremont, who wanted a regi- ment in northern Missouri. “Send me,”" was Grant's request to Governor Yates. “No transportation’ gwas ernor’s reply. “1'll find transportation,” the Col- onel insisted, and on July 1861, ho jssued his first marching orde: o ————————— — STOP AT — Sanitary ELECTRIC LUNCH Kensington, Conn.
