no man commanded in a higher degree the
confidence Of Mr. Lincoln, than did Gen.
Singleton. During the war, more than
once, President Lincoln called Gen. Single.
ton TO Washington to send him to Richmond
as peace maker.
Gen. Singleton is ia several respects q
remarkable man. He was born in 1901,
and although 81 years Of age he has the ap.
pearance aud activity Of a man OF As. He
IS a little below medium hight, is square
shouldered, deep chested, and neatly formed.
He has a large well balanced head, solidly

The Rock Island Union SAYS


"Fow indeed are the soldiers willing to take
seats in a convention with Lee, Roddy and For
rest, and hosts Of others of that stripe No true
soldier will"
Grant sought to have Lee and Roddy ar.
doned. He used oil his influence with the
President for that object. lie was partcu.
larly uegent for Roddy. Surely, Grant would
sit in convention with ROddy and Leo since
he so earnestly desired their restoration TO
the rights and privileges forfeited by trea.
son.
Roddy does not train with democrats
We have no doubt that he is radical, and
that the edetor Of the Union, as well as any
other radicals would as leave sit with Roddy
in convention, as with old Joe Brown Of
Georgia, rebel member of the Chicago
convention.
We know that Roddy. We formed his ac.
quaintance in 1862. He hung upon the

every spring of water, when halt was or.

OF the troops, where the face Of the country

march we can point out where fell our com.

Roddy's exploits, and especially, the little
affair OF spring about 80 miles north of
Athens, Alabama, where on a warm day
early in September 1862, Mr.. Palmer made
a very rapid movement for the rear of
