AS an instance of his unfailing courtesy
to the enemy, and especially to women
and children, Major Mitchell, one of Lo-
gan's old staff officers and a Board Of
Trade man now in Chicago. relates the
following incident: when the army was
encamrcd at Huntsville Southern wom-
an, whose husband and sons were in the
Confederate army. applied to Logan for
protection. She lived alone with her two
daughters. and was afraid that the fam
lily might be molested in some way. Lo-
gan at once stationed guard at her
house and kept it there until the army
moved.
Logan never could resist the appea! of
the old soldier. After the bitter campaign
Of 1884 an old volunteer, lame and broken
in health, presented himself before the
general one evening. He preferred a re-
quest. compliance with which would have
placed Logan in the position of an appli-
cant for favor from the administratio ion.
Much agitated at the old mans story, the
general at last exclaimed stormily:

when he took Gen. McPherson's COM
mand at the battle of Atlanta. This was
one of the bloodiest battles of the war.
1t was July -, 1864. Hood had succeed
ed Johnston in command of the Confed-
crate forces. and these were intrenched in
Atlanta. Gen. Sherman. however, be-
licving that the enemy had evacuated the
city, ordered Mcpherson to move forward
in the direction of East Point and over
take the Confederates. Major Gen. Lo-
gan, commanding the Fifteenth army
corps. was ordered to press the enemy on
the left flank, while Gems. Schotield and
Thomas were to attack his right and
rear. Mcpherson soon discovered that
Sherman had been completely misled. and
ordered LCgan's troops to go into position
for battle. About noon, the firing having
become general all along the line by that
time, Mcpherson rode out almost alone to
observe the carrying out of his orders. In
passing through Il narrow bride path he
came upon a stray company of Confeder-
ates from Hardee's corps. lying down in

In 1888 as Douglas Democrat he Went
to Congress.
In 1860 he went again.
He was a Douglas man in the presl-
Dental year of 1850. but when he heard
the South threatened trouble he said he
would shoulder his musket to have LIN
coin inaugurated.
In July, 1861, Lincoln had secession ON
his hands. and Congress was in extra ses-
sion. Troops were leaving Washington
for the front. Logan quit the halls of
Congress, chased the troops, grabbed Il
gun and stayed at Bull Run until there
were extra good reasons for leaving the
field.
He returned to Illinois in August, re-
signed his seat in Congress, organized the
Thirty-tilst Illinois, and was made ITS
colonel. Sept. -.
He was at Belmont at the head Of his
own hot bayonets, and lost horse. He
led his regiment at Fort Henry and Fort
Donelson, mt the latter assault getting a
wound that disabled him for some time.
March 5, 1862 he became brigadier-
general OF volunteers. That summer the
people at home said. Come back. Logan,
and run for Congress- and Logan re
piled: Il have entered the field to die. If
need be, for this Government. and never
expect to return to peaceful pursuits UNI
til the object of this war of preservation
has become an established fact
In Grants northern Mississippi cam

ION of the Seventeenth army corps under
Mcpherson. He was made major general
of volunteers Nov. 26, 1862.
He fought at Port Gibson, Raymond,
jackson and Champion Hills. He COM
manded McphersOn's center ut VicksburG
and made the assault at the explosion of
the mine. His column first entered the
city. and he was made its military gov
crnOr.
In November, 1863, he succeeded Sher-
man in command of the Fifteenth army
corps. In 1864 he led the advance Of the
Army of the Tennessee at Resaca, repuls-
ed Hartlee at Dallas and drove the enemy
from his line of works ut Kencsaw Noun
tain.
