gentleness and lovable qualities en-
deared her to many of the young Off
GERS upon General Grants staff, who
have the very tenderest memories of
her. One young lieutenant, who was a
member of the household is now one
of our senators. From him the writer
has often heard pleasant anecdotes of
the home life at headquarters during
the war, and the highest praises of Mrs.
Grant, whose influence upon all who
came in contact with her was always
for good. Mrs. Grant, though tho
roughly home mother, is an historical
character who will be remembered
when the glory of great commanders
and officers shall have been dimmed by
time.
