MOTHER BlCkERDlkE.
WHAT sHT DID IN THE WAR.
DID IN THE WAR.
~ RosSLLA RICE.

When the first cannon doomed out at
Fort Sumpter, and when war with all its
horrors opened upon MS, it found our
greatest General selling leather and boots
and shoes in the quiet little city Of Ga
lena. Illinois. And al the same time,
the greatest nurse that our Army of the
Cumberland was to have-Mother B'ck-
erdyke-lived in obscuri'y, poor wild
ow, in Galesburg, Illinois, earning liv-
ing for herself and her children at the
washtub.
The nation held aloft the chaplet OF
fame, waiting. ready for the brow of the
coming hero, Ulysses S. Grant-and the
angels held one that would never fade
nor fall nor wither for the bronzed and
wrinkled brow of dear old Mother Bick-
erdyke.
During the war General Grant gave
her pass anywhere whiting the lines Of
his department, into all camps and hos
pitals, and past all pickets, with author
| i;y to draw on any quar,ermaster IN his
department for transportation, for sani-
tary or hospital stores not to exceed thir-
ty wagons at any one lime. This pass
she held TO end of the war, and it was
enlarged as his department enlarged.
Gen. Sherman and Mother Bickerdyke
were good friends. She would die for
him, if need be. and he would fight for
her. There was something in her char
ac,er akin to bis own. Both were in
domitable, fiery, jealous, and neither
was afraid of hard work. After the fall
of Vicksburg he asked that she might
become an especial attache to his corps,
the Fifteenth. Ever after that during
the war she considered herself in an es-
necial sense under Sherman's direction; ;
and the soldiers of the Fifteenth Corps
always and to this day have claimed ex-
elusive ownership of her.
From the time nurses were called for,
after the first battle in the Mississippi
Valley, she had walked to broader and
and newer life. 1t was with brave
heart and with willing hands that she
took up her work, leaving her children
| in the care of the widows God. 1.-The
bows" were her children then, and 1t
was EASY work for them to call her "mo-
} ther."
She had all woman's tact and ten
derness in managing the sick ones. In
matters of business, when thrown upon
her own resources, she was grand wo,
man-"nobly planned born to comfort
and command" as some of the officer!
learned to their own chagrin and after
wards amusement. Emergencies were
constantly rising that she could not fore
see, and for which another in her place
could not have provided. Not so Mothel
Bickerdyke.
Sometimes she would buy largely o
bo spital stores, with never cent OF mon
ey. and send the bills up to the Commits
sion with her endorsement. Again sh
would borrow money, expend it for tn
needs of the "boys" under her charge
and then send up notes and vouchers ant
leave the matter to be settled. Will
some of the members of the Commission
objected to the unbusiness like transac
,ions, they had no doubt that the none,
had been well expended and every cen
put to legitimate use.
