Clients who went to him werc sometimes rather dis- posed to doubt his wisdom when they saw his youthful face, npon which no signs of beard had yet appeared. But a little con- sultation soon convineed them that the big head that they saw on those young shoulders was full of brains, and the result was that he soon began to get business and_those who once employed him never forsook him for other lawyers. The records of the courts of last resort in Indiana will show that ho hias been engaged in_more important cases than almost any other man in the state. In 1860 the republican party elected him re- porter of the supremo_court. This was an oftice within the line of his profession, and one that he was glad to_get for the money there was in it, for as yet he was struggling for a name and a place in the legal ranks, He had hardly been installed into office when the late war broke out. His loyalty to the government made him resolyed to leave his profession and his home and respond to his country’s call. Meeting Governor Mor- ton on the street he signified his intention and was requested to organize a com; y. Ho recruited company A of the ticth Indiana. After the organiz tion of tho regiment ho was commissioned its coloncl. With his regiment he went to Bow- ling Green, Ky., and was soon, as ranking colonel, mude communder of the brigade, When Buell und Bragg made their famous march through Kentucky his command was loft, like an island, in the midst of the hsstile Seven- fore For many months his troops guarded the Louisville & N hville railroad and af- terwards the Nashville & Cliattanooga, He was u strict disiplinurian and in the early r there was muttering on the s and men on account of what 3ut it was days of the w part of officc they ealled his everlasting drill, remarked that he worked as hard as any soldier in the ranks, Before the close of the war, however, his men learned to love him and to 88¢ that the early days of drill made later days of sufety poxsible. Many a time, on the long and tiresome mareh, have 1 seen Colonel Harrison dismount his sor horse and invite some foot-sore pri dier to ride, Statisties show that the battle of Chicka- mauga was, for the time of the battle and number of men engaged, the bloodiest of the war. Harrison's brigade was in the thickest of the fight. Down Peach Tree creek the blood literally ran in stream: He stood like a hero infusing courage and confidence into his struggling men. With not a bit of brag and bluster but with a quict dignity he was always at his post of duty in any time of need. He went with Sherman in his march 1o the sea. After the war was over he returned to In- dianapolis and to his cottage home on Alabama_ street, d, forming a partnership with Albert G. Porter and W. P. Fishbuck resumed the practice of law. No stronger firm than that of Porter, Harri- son and Fishback ever been known in Indiana. The bio; phiers say that he was the republican for governor in 1876 and was def T'his is partly true and partly a mistake. Tn that vear Godlive S. Orth was nominated for governor and after the c had been begun such serious charges were e against the nominee that it was 1t th s def was certain. In this dilemma the state ¢ tral committee took his name off the ticket and inserted th me of Harrison. If Har- rison had been the original nominee there is little dovbt but he would have been clectec In 1850 he was elected United States sena tor, which oflice he held for six ycars. In the minds of men who nre familiar with In- there have Ldiana politics, 15 but little doubty at he might successfully contested the scat of his successor, Senator Turpie, on account of the frauds practiced in the elec tion of the Indiana legislature in 1886, But he declined to contest, People who know nothing of the man have somctimes uccused him of bemg cold and formal. He is anything but that. He is a dignificd gentleman and does not walk up to an acquaintance ou the strect and slap him on the back and salute him with *Hello Jack,” but he attends to every duty in iife with' honest effort and ~ purpose. He is far from being @ rich mad, but he has a comfortable fortunc, every dollar of which he has carned.

He is rather under statute, but he is u giant from the shoulders up, and it is literally true that his head is 80 big that he is compelled to get his hats made to order. In 1876 a party of ex-residents of Inaiana met in Topelen, Kas., and to them the write predicted that within twenty years Benjamin Harrison_would be pregident'of the United States.

They have issued more than one thousand promissory notes that have come due in these four ye and not one of them has been paid—not one. 1t was . says ing of Abraham Lincoln that you could fool all the people some of the time, you could fool some of the people all the time, but you could not fool ull' of the people all of the time.
