                  <text>Frank E. Stevens was a lawyer, banker, newspaper editor and writer based in Illinois. Stevens was born and educated in Dixon, Illinois. He studied law in Sycamore, Illinois, and was admitted to the bar in 1877. Shortly after that he moved to South Dakota where he operated the Beadle County National Bank until 1890 when he moved to Chicago and worked in a brokerage business. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1907 Stevens returned to Sycamore, Illinois, where he published the Dixon Weekly Citizen and later the Sycamore Tribune. He retired from the newspaper business in 1928 and was elected mayor of Sycamore in 1931. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Governor Henry Horner appointed Stevens to the War Records Division of the office of the Adjutant General. Stevens was a historian who authored several historical works including The Black Hawk War. Stevens used the majority of the items in the collection while researching and writing The Black Hawk War.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Black Hawk War (1832), although brief, has much significance for Native American history. In April, tribal groups of Sauk, Meskwakis, and Kickapoo, led by Chief Black Hawk of the Sauk, crossed the Mississippi River from Iowa into Illinois. Known as the British Band, they claimed lands under the 1804 Treaty of St. Louis, a treaty the whites disputed. Fearful, militia&amp;rsquo;s fired on the Native American delegation in what led to the Battle of Stillman&amp;rsquo;s Run, a resounding defeat for the militias. Black Hawk was eventually defeat, however, at the battles of Wisconsin Heights and Bad Axe. Historically, the Black Hawk War legitimized and strengthened forcible relocation of Native American tribes further west.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the Frank E. Stevens Papers, 1832-1939 at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum is located at: http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/610.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of several individuals connected to the Black Hawk War including Chief Shabbona, Major Isaiah Stillman, Brigadier General Milton K. Alexander, Colonel Nathan Boone, and Brigadier General Henry Atkinson. The collection also includes images of prominent Illinois residents from the mid and late 19th century including actress Mary Garden, William S. Hamilton, and Charles B. Farwell.</text>

                  <text>The Federal Music Project began in 1935 as part of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal plan. The program, led by Russian-American violinist and orchestra conductor Nicolai Sokoloff, employed musicians, composers, and conductors throughout the United States including more than 400 people in Chicago. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The program provided funding for music festivals, classes, and concerts as well as the creation of 34 orchestras. The Federal Music Project conducted research on several genres of American music with a special emphasis placed on traditional American music and folk songs including cowboy, Creole, and African American music. The Federal Music Project ended at the outbreak of World War II.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Images in this collection include publicity photos of several Illinois musicians and choral groups funded by the Federal Music Project.</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>

&lt;p&gt;placed in the transportation Bks to be forwarded to their respective Companies The Capt instead of complying with that Order remanded them back to the Prison Bks  where the said Cyrus R. Quigley was kept until the second day of Dec 1863 When he was sent to Indianapolis Ind and there kept in confinement until the 28th of March 1864, when he was sent to Columbus Ohio where he was kept in confinement until the 7th of April 1864 and then sent to Elmira NY and kept in confinement until the 20th of April 1864 When he was identified by Sergt Stroud as a member of the aforesaid Company on or about the 10th of April he was arraigned for trial before the Police Court at Bks No. 3 Elmira NY Which desided he be sent to his Company stationed at Camp Douglas Chicago Ill and on the 28th of April 1864 He was sent forward to join his Company as aforesaid where he reported on the 30th inst &lt;u&gt;No Guard accompanying and no charges sent with him&lt;/u&gt; I have the honor further to state that the said Syrus R. Quigley was Droped from my Company rolls as a deserter on the 2nd of December 1863 at which time I received notice that there should be stopped from his pay $30.00 from apprehension as a Deserter About the same time I received a letter from his friends asking for information concerning him as they had not heard anything from him since he left home to join his Company.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor further to state That 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;---
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the said Cyrus R. Quigley while with the Company has always conducted himself as a good and faithful soldier.

                  <text>David Davis, a lawyer, politician, distinguished jurist and businessman, was born in Maryland, educated at Kenyon College in Ohio, and studied law at Yale University. Davis married Sarah Woodruff Walker in 1838 and they had five children including George Perrin Davis and Sarah "Sally" Davis. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1844, Davis won election as a Whig to the Illinois Legislature, and four years later was elected Judge of Illinois Eighth Judicial Circuit, where he served on the bench during Lincoln's remaining years as an attorney on the circuit. The two became close friends, and Davis worked diligently as Lincoln's campaign manager at the 1860 Republican nominating convention in Chicago. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1862, President Lincoln appointed Davis to the United States Supreme Court, where Davis wrote the majority opinion in Ex parte Milligan, a landmark decision restricting the rights of military courts to try civilians. In 1877, he resigned from the court after being elected to the United States Senate by the Illinois Legislature. Davis served as Senate president pro tempore from 1881 to 1883, and was known unofficially as "Mr. Vice President." He retired from the Senate in 1883.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;Davis invested in real estate with De Witt County attorney, Clifton H. Moore, and became a man of considerable wealth. He had the distinction of being the largest landowner in Illinois. At the time of his death, June 26, 1886, his estate was valued between four to five million dollars-a huge fortune in his day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the David Davis Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum may be found at:&amp;nbsp;http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/165.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include portraits of several members of the David Davis and George P. Davis families. The collection also includes portraits of Judge Davis' law colleagues, images of Bloomington, Illinois, and photographs of miscellaneous buildings throughout the United States.</text>
