told a little story of the late Gen
sral Benjamin Harrison During
ne civil war;" said the doctor, Col
incl Harrison-for he was then Col

Ecwling Green. Many soldiers were
sick, and he appropriated the hotel
oi the place, the Mitchell House, for
use as hospital. Mr.. Mitchell
murmured somewhat, but had to
give way to military necessity, Col
onel Harrison assuring him that be
should be paid for the use Of the
house, even though Harrison should
have to pay out Of his own pocket.
The war ended and the years went
on. Mr.. Mitchell was we'll to do and
presented NO claim. Finally, when
Harrison became President Of the
United States, Mr.. Mitchell conclud-
ed to send his bill directly to the
President. He did so, and President
Harrison sent him his check for tho
