&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jan 26th AD 1863
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear sir 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have written to you several times since this unholy Rebellion has been [raging?].   times so far as the safety of our State are concerned are growing more gloomy daily here in Egypt.  The Political leaders are becoming more bold and daring daily in opposing the administration and the Excitement is now so high that I think the firing one gun by Either party would at once open the ball and bloodshed.  there was a rope hung over a union mans door a few nights since near pinckneyville  the man has one contraband staying at his house and the opposition to the administration is threatning to run the contrabands out of the country and it is said that there is now a company secretly organizing to run them off together with the persons that have them in their employment   Andrew Robinson a very Respectable farmer and by the bye a southern sympathiser of this county told a neighbor of mine Thomas Johnson who is entirely reliable that the Negroes must be run off and that there would 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;be a revolution here in a short time and that the [cesess?] has a large majority and that the plan was to kill the Governor of this State so as to prevent the Union men from being organized and then to all go to work and rid the State of abolitionists   there is one thing certain the feeling higher now than it has been at any previous time.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our State can be organized by secret organization and the Loyal men armed secretively in five or six weeks ready for any emergency at home  if we can get the arms we can organize the Loyal men in this county in two weeks time by organizing secretively if it is approved of by you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectively yours &amp;amp;c
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lewis Hammach
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lewis Hammich
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pinckneyville.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wishes the Gov to allow Loyal men to organize themselves into a secret society for the purpose of putting down a rebellion which he is sure will take place in this state   Says a secessionist told his neighbor they had a plan to kill the Gov and run the Negroes and those employing them out of the state.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rebellion
&lt;/p&gt;

                    <text>&lt;p&gt;Galena Ills July 1863
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His Excellency Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor of the State of Illinois
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The undersigned would respectfully State to your Excellency that He is acquainted with a Medicinal Plant, which if it were supplyed to the Hospital Dispensatories of the Army for the use of soldiers suffering under attacks of summer complaints including such as have become chronic, as well as the recent and more manageable cases. -  It would restore to the ranks, or save the lives of most of those who under ordinary treatment, would succumb to this class of maladies, so, incident and troublesome to camp life.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Plant is known scientifically as the "OEnothera biennis" - Its most common name is "Scabish". it is of general distribution - growing abundantly in all sections of the Country. It is pleasant to the taste. In its operation, it is soothing - Strengthening and health restoring.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am a civil Engineer by Profession, and have been engaged in the construction of Public Works, a large portion of the time since 1833. I have scarse known
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a case of cholera morbus - Dysentery - Sun Stroke Diorrhaea or Flux, occurring on our works, that would not yield to this remedy - and this too, in the seasons when the cholera prevailed - I have brought this Plant to the attention of many Physicians who have adopted it in their practice - But as it has not become officinal, it is not to be procured of the apothecaries, and is as yet comparitively little known.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet it might be supplyed by the aid of the sanitary Commission - or it might be obtained in the vicinity of the Hospitals by the properly instructed attendants, who could readily learn to distinguish the growing Plant. I might refer Your Excellency to Brig. Genl. M. Brayman of Springfield To Col R B. Mason of Chicago or to the Hon Sidney Breeze of Carlisle - and to hundreds of other citizens of Illinois who have used this remedy in their families, or have used it themselves. -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have gathered and gratuitously distributed large quantities of this Plant both to Physicians and Laymen, and as yet the most signal and wonderful success has attended its use. There is a case in point in this City at this time. J. G. Kunz an invalid and discharged Private of Com D. 45th Regt Ill St Vol who was discharged from the Hospital at Memphis in March last as an incurable subject of chronic Diorrhoea.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hearing of his case as one which his Physicians here had also despared of curing - I sought the privilege of helping him - and within a few days from the time he commenced using the above remedy, he was declaired out of danger by his Physician, and is now convalescent. as with him, so invariably has been the success attending the use of this plant. I am confident that its use in the army would restore to, or keep more men in the ranks, who otherwise must be discharged or perish in the Hospitals - Than a score of Recruiting Officers could enlist to supply their places in the same time - and this assertion I can make good and will gladly if I may be allowed the privilege and assistance to enable me to undertake the duty.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was formerly Prof. of Natl. Sciences in Burlington College N.J. and have been a Member of the Academy of Natl. Sci. of Philadelphia since 1842 - So that in paying some attention to Medical Botany I have not altogether departed from what should have demanded My study. But I may not trespass further on your time and attention - My conscience would not allow Me to do less
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With this as My apology - I am Your Excellencies
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Obedient Servant
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lewis J. Germain
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;File G
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Germain Lewis J
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Galena July 1 1863.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is acquainted with a medicinal plant, which if used in the hospitals it would restore to the ranks, or save the lives of the most of whom under ordinary treatment would succumb to this class of maladies, &amp;amp;c.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recd Ex O July 16 1863

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Galena Ills July 1863
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His Excellency Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor of the State of Illinois
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The undersigned would respectfully State to your Excellency that He is acquainted with a Medicinal Plant, which if it were supplyed to the Hospital Dispensatories of the Army for the use of soldiers suffering under attacks of summer complaints including such as have become chronic, as well as the recent and more manageable cases. -  It would restore to the ranks, or save the lives of most of those who under ordinary treatment, would succumb to this class of maladies, so, incident and troublesome to camp life.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Plant is known scientifically as the "OEnothera biennis" - Its most common name is "Scabish". it is of general distribution - growing abundantly in all sections of the Country. It is pleasant to the taste. In its operation, it is soothing - Strengthening and health restoring.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am a civil Engineer by Profession, and have been engaged in the construction of Public Works, a large portion of the time since 1833. I have scarse known
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a case of cholera morbus - Dysentery - Sun Stroke Diorrhaea or Flux, occurring on our works, that would not yield to this remedy - and this too, in the seasons when the cholera prevailed - I have brought this Plant to the attention of many Physicians who have adopted it in their practice - But as it has not become officinal, it is not to be procured of the apothecaries, and is as yet comparitively little known.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet it might be supplyed by the aid of the sanitary Commission - or it might be obtained in the vicinity of the Hospitals by the properly instructed attendants, who could readily learn to distinguish the growing Plant. I might refer Your Excellency to Brig. Genl. M. Brayman of Springfield To Col R B. Mason of Chicago or to the Hon Sidney Breeze of Carlisle - and to hundreds of other citizens of Illinois who have used this remedy in their families, or have used it themselves. -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have gathered and gratuitously distributed large quantities of this Plant both to Physicians and Laymen, and as yet the most signal and wonderful success has attended its use. There is a case in point in this City at this time. J. G. Kunz an invalid and discharged Private of Com D. 45th Regt Ill St Vol who was discharged from the Hospital at Memphis in March last as an incurable subject of chronic Diorrhoea.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hearing of his case as one which his Physicians here had also despared of curing - I sought the privilege of helping him - and within a few days from the time he commenced using the above remedy, he was declaired out of danger by his Physician, and is now convalescent. as with him, so invariably has been the success attending the use of this plant. I am confident that its use in the army would restore to, or keep more men in the ranks, who otherwise must be discharged or perish in the Hospitals - Than a score of Recruiting Officers could enlist to supply their places in the same time - and this assertion I can make good and will gladly if I may be allowed the privilege and assistance to enable me to undertake the duty.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was formerly Prof. of Natl. Sciences in Burlington College N.J. and have been a Member of the Academy of Natl. Sci. of Philadelphia since 1842 - So that in paying some attention to Medical Botany I have not altogether departed from what should have demanded My study. But I may not trespass further on your time and attention - My conscience would not allow Me to do less
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With this as My apology - I am Your Excellencies
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Obedient Servant
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lewis J. Germain
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;File G
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Germain Lewis J
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Galena July 1 1863.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is acquainted with a medicinal plant, which if used in the hospitals it would restore to the ranks, or save the lives of the most of whom under ordinary treatment would succumb to this class of maladies, &amp;amp;c.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recd Ex O July 16 1863

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some time since I sent to you for relief a poor woman, a member of St Paul's Church, who had a son in the army, and who was in need. It was not then in my power to assist her more than I had done.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She informed me of your very considerate reception and treatment of her, and has often since expressed her gratitude for your kindness.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The many calls made upon you under similar circumstances, must I am persuaded be a severe tax upon your private purse. You will not I am sure be offended at my returning to you from a small fund I now have the amount you gave her, when I assure you that it is done with the purest motives, and with the highest respect for you as a gentleman of noble and generous impulses.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very truly your

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The writer of this note Lewis Wendell a member of Company A, 35th Ill. volunteered three years ago last July, and served his time out faithfully without ever absenting himself a day from the Reg. in all that time   was mustered out with the rest of his Reg. at Springfield a few weeks ago.  And after waiting three weeks for his discharge paper there, without getting them, came to Chicago to see a married Sister. And the first day here was arrested for being found
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;without a pass. And only at the earnest solicitation of friends was prevented from being locked up, and a pass procured from the provost marshal, for a few days,   I have now been here two weeks and have written to Capt Peak and telegraphed to Springfield for my discharge papers to be sent here, and can get no reply from anyone. My pass is out and I obliged to keep in the house, from being arrested like a felon, which I think is bad treatment. I want to go home to my parent in Penn~. and as a last resort I thought I would write to you knowing you to be the soldiers friend to see wether you could not do
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;something for me or send me some kind of a pass that I can leave here and go home. By so doing will much oblige    Yours
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Very Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lewis Wendell

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor of the State of Illinois
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The writer of this note Lewis Wendell a member of Company A, 35th Ill. volunteered three years ago last July, and served his time out faithfully without ever absenting himself a day from the Reg. in all that time   was mustered out with the rest of his Reg. at Springfield a few weeks ago.  And after waiting three weeks for his discharge paper there, without getting them, came to Chicago to see a married Sister. And the first day here was arrested for being found
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;without a pass. And only at the earnest solicitation of friends was prevented from being locked up, and a pass procured from the provost marshal, for a few days,   I have now been here two weeks and have written to Capt Peak and telegraphed to Springfield for my discharge papers to be sent here, and can get no reply from anyone. My pass is out and I obliged to keep in the house, from being arrested like a felon, which I think is bad treatment. I want to go home to my parent in Penn~. and as a last resort I thought I would write to you knowing you to be the soldiers friend to see wether you could not do
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;something for me or send me some kind of a pass that I can leave here and go home. By so doing will much oblige    Yours
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Very Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lewis Wendell
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Company A 35 Reg. Ill. Vol.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;P.O. Box 680 Chicago
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oct 18th 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wendell Lewis
Co "A" 35th Ill Vols
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Post Office Box 680
Chicago, Illinois
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He served three years was mustered out in Springfield, and waited three weeks there for his discharge papers, and then went to Chicago to see a relative &amp;amp; was arrested for being without a pass. Wants Govr to send him some kind of pass to enable him to go home.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ans'd  [illegible]
&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>The Palatine Commercial Corporation began in 1917 as a co-operative of stores catering to the Polish American community. The organization soon opened training schools in the Chicago metro area to provide business and management training for members. By 1919, the education component of the company grew to include one main campus and seven satellite branches. The organization also published a company paper to share information on the activities of the company. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The photographs in this collection include images of storefronts, window displays, and activities at the corporate offices.</text>

                  <text>The Kankakee State Hospital originally opened in 1879 as the Illinois Eastern Hospital for the Insane under the Board of State Commissioners of Public Charities. In 1886 the hopital began serving as a training school for nurses. The institute became the Kankakee State Hospital in 1910 after the abolishment of the Board of State Commissioners of Public Charities. The hospital operated under the Department of Public Welfare beginning in 1917 until the Department of Mental Health's establishment in 1961. In 1974, the hospital became a treatment center for developmentally disabled patients and all other patients were transferred to other hospitals. At that time the hospital was renamed the Samuel H. Shapiro Developmental Center in honor of the Illinois governor and former Kankakee resident.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of the Kankakee State Hospital patients, activities, and buildings.</text>

                  <text>Monticello College first began as the Monticello Female Seminary in 1838. Founded by Captain Benjamin Godfrey to provide education for women, the school offered two years of classes for attendees based on the idea that&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;“if you educate a man you educate an individual; educate a woman and you educate a whole family.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Godfrey selected Reverend Theron Baldwin to serve as the first head of the Monticello Female Seminary. In 1867 Harriet Haskell became principal, a position she held until her death in 1907.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On November 4, 1888, a fire broke out in the building and consumed the entire structure. Ms. Haskell and the school's Board of Trustees successfully fundraised for a new building and rebuilt the school in two years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The school's leadership made the decision to close the school in 1970 with the final class graduating in 1971. Lewis and Clark Community College completed the purchase of the Monticello College campus in 1972.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the Monticello College (Godfrey, IL) Records at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/545" title="Monticello College (Godfrey, IL) Records"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/545&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the photographic Monticello College Collection at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum may be found at &lt;a href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/3/resources/4702" title="Monticello College Collection "&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/3/resources/4702&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</text>
