support of it's standard oflasting
principles of free representative
government, men who stood
upon either side in the great con-

city FEBRUARY 4, 1861.
In April 1861 he was commits
stoned Colonel of the 18th Illinois
volunteers, and accompanied
General Fremont on his expedi-
ton to Springfield, Missouri,
and was made brigadier general
in December following. He was
with Gen. Pope at the capture
of New Madrid and Island no 10;
and afterward commanded the
LIST brigade, LIST division OF the
Army of Mississippi. In Novem-
Der 1862 he was with Grants

the Republican nominee for Gov
ernor OF Illinois, elected, and serv-
ed four years, from Jan. 1869.

of October 1861 Governor Pal:
mer took temporary charge of
the city with his State militia,
and hung several thieves and
thugs to lamp posts OF the city.
In 1872 Governor P almerjoined
the liberal movement, led in Hi
nois by Lyman Trumbull, then
