Tod of Ohio, I have called upon your Excellency to say, that from reliable sources Gov. Tod, having received information of a conspiracy throughout Kentucky to effect a general uprising of the sympathizers of the rebellion and to get control of that State, he deemed it necessary to immediately send special messenger to Washington to lay the matter before the Government and to urge such measures should be promptly taken, as would not only check the present traitorous designs, but also secure States of Kentucky Illinois, Indiana & Ohio from the frequent threatening of invasion by rebel raids. The President, Secretary of War, Asst. Secy of Navy & genl Halleck gave assurances that proper steps should be immediately taken, by sending sufficient troops into Kentucky, by authorizing Kentucky to raise Troops for her own protection and by Stationing in the Ohio River some ten gun boats, for the protection of the boarder, and by the appointment of a general officer to take charge of this part of the depart <hr />ment & direct all the movement. Gov. Tod directed me to say to your Excellency, that the urgency of the matter prevented him from consulting your Excellency before sending to Washington, and that, immediately on the return of his messengers, he has dispatched one of them, myself, to inform you of what has been done. I have the honor to be very respectfully Yr Obt Servt Joshua H. Bates, <hr />Joshua A Bates Columbus O One of the commissioners of Gov Tod to Washington – Report to Governor Yates. Write Gov.

Title A name given to the resource Vachel Lindsay Collection Subject The topic of the resource Lindsay, Vachel, 1879-1931 Vachel Lindsay Association Lindsay, Elizabeth Conner, 1901-1954 Lindsay, Nick, 1922- Russell, Susan Doniphan Lindsay, 1926-1990 Graham, Elizabeth Lindsay, Vachel Thomas, 1843-1918 Lindsay, Esther Catharine Frazee, 1848-1922 Frazee, Ephraim S. (Ephraim Samuel), 1824-1896 Description An account of the resource Nicholas Vachel Lindsay, a major American poet, was born in 1879 at 603 South Fifth Street in Springfield, Illinois to Dr. Vachel Thomas Lindsay and Catherine Frazee Lindsay. He graduated from Springfield High School and studied at Hiram College in Ohio, the Chicago Art Institute and the New York School of Art.  Lindsay made three famous walking tours of the United States in 1906, 1908 and 1912, covering more than 2,800 miles. On these treks, Lindsay traded poems for food and shelter, earning him the title “The Prairie Troubadour.”  Lindsay first earned fame with the publication of his poem “General William Booth Enters into Heaven” in 1913. Two years later his poem, “The Wedding of the Rose and the Lotus”, calling for tolerance between Eastern and Western cultures was printed by the United States Secretary of the Interior and sent to both houses of Congress in connection with the opening of the Panama Canal.  Much of Lindsay’s poetry was written to be read aloud, and he performed extensively across the country and in Europe. He often created drawings to go with his poems. He was a leading voice in the American “New Poetry” movement and published a total of 20 volumes of poetry and prose. He and other artists of his day championed a new language to express new subjects, such as civil liberties, civic excellence and humanitarian and aesthetic values. He also wrote poems of protest against spiritual and environmental blight. Lindsay’s Springfield home was his creative center, and he returned there many times during his career.  In 1925 he married Elizabeth Conner of Spokane, Washington. He returned to Springfield with his wife and two children in 1929, where he committed suicide on December 5, 1931. The Vachel Lindsay Association, a not-for-profit private corporation, was founded in 1946 in Springfield, Illinois “to perpetuate the spiritual and material estate of Nicholas Vachel Lindsay, the Poet”. The organization proposed to finance the collection and publication of various Lindsayana and to maintain and preserve the Lindsay Home as a site for perpetuating interest in Lindsay and his poetry and ideals. In 1990 the Lindsay Home was transferred to the state of Illinois and became a historic site open to the public. The Association continues to promote interest in Lindsay through various public programming and publishing endeavors. Elizabeth Graham, friend of Lindsay, was a founding member and curator of the Lindsay Home from 1958 to 1978.

Title A name given to the resource Constitutional Convention Collection Description An account of the resource The move to call the Sixth Illinois Constitutional Convention to adopt the first new state constitution since 1870 gained momentum when the after the creation of the first Constitution Study Commission in 1965.  Following almost two years of study, the commission, recommended that the question of a convention call be put to the voters in the November 1968 election. When state voters called for the convention to be convened in December 1969, a third Constitution Study Commission was delegated to provide for convention organization and staffing arrangements.    One hundred and sixteen delegates, two from each of the state senatorial districts, were elected in a special nonpartisan election on November 18, 1969.  The convention officially convened on December 8, 1969. Convention officers selected were: Samuel Witwer, President; John Alexander, Thomas C. Lyons, and Elbert S. Smith, Vice Presidents; and Odas Nicholson, Secretary. The sixth Illinois Constitutional Convention met in the statehouse. When the General Assembly met in the spring of 1970, the convention moved to the newly restored Old State Capitol.  Nine substantive standing committees had been appointed by the convention.  Each committee was assigned a specific article that they were to revise, retain, or eliminate from the 1870 constitution.  Committee proposals were then submitted to the convention where the whole body deliberated on their inclusion into the constitution.  As part of the proposal writing stage, the committees on the Bill of Rights, the Legislature, the Executive, the Judiciary, Revenue and Finance, Education, Suffrage and Constitutional Amendment, Local Government and General Government held public hearings.  Committee debate and public hearings lasted until April 1970. From April until August, the convention worked on the final draft of the constitution. The new constitution received the approval of Illinois voters in a special December 15, 1970 election.  The constitution took effect in July 1971.  The finding aid for the Illinois Constitutional Convention, 1969-1970, Records, 1965-1972 at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum may be found at <a title="Illinois Constitutional Convention, 1969-1970, Records, 1965-1972" href="http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/319" target="_blank">http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/319</a>.
