                <elementText elementTextId="452493">
                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois. Trumbull remained in the United States Senate until 1873 after which he resumed practice of law in Chicago. In 1880 he tried as a Democrat for Governor of Illinois but was unsuccessful. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;While in the United States Senate he favored new bills opposing black slavery, passing a bill ending slavery in District of Columbia, which was amended, allowing blacks to testify in federal court and supported a bill which forbade the use of the Union Army to return runaway slaves to their owners.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In 1864, Trumbull worked with another senator to create the Freedman’s Bureau to help blacks with housing and, later, education.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He also voted for the first reconstruction act that created a new voters list that included African Americans.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trumbull’s most prominent legislative achievement was his proposal of the 13th Amendment originally written by Senator John Henderson.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The 13th&amp;nbsp;Amendment amended the United States Constitution so that slavery and servitude was illegal and it gave Congress the power to enforce it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was also a leading supporter of the 1866 Civil Rights Bill that was designed to protect freed slaves form Southern Black Codes.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Trumbull was one of seven Republicans who broke party ranks and voted against the conviction of President Johnson during his impeachment trial in the Senate. In 1872 he joined other Liberal Republicans in supporting Horace Greeley’s presidential candidacy against the reelection of President Grant.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding. His second marriage was to Mary Ingraham, on November 3, 1877, with whom he had two daughters, Alma and Mae. Only one son survived Trumbull in death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He died June 25, 1896 in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource record for the Lyman Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a title="Lyman Trumbull Family Papers" href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other related resource records containing from Lyman Trumbull's father and other family members may be found in the Benjamin Trumbull Family Papers and Lamb-Mather-Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

                <elementText elementTextId="452493">
                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois. Trumbull remained in the United States Senate until 1873 after which he resumed practice of law in Chicago. In 1880 he tried as a Democrat for Governor of Illinois but was unsuccessful. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;While in the United States Senate he favored new bills opposing black slavery, passing a bill ending slavery in District of Columbia, which was amended, allowing blacks to testify in federal court and supported a bill which forbade the use of the Union Army to return runaway slaves to their owners.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In 1864, Trumbull worked with another senator to create the Freedman’s Bureau to help blacks with housing and, later, education.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He also voted for the first reconstruction act that created a new voters list that included African Americans.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trumbull’s most prominent legislative achievement was his proposal of the 13th Amendment originally written by Senator John Henderson.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The 13th&amp;nbsp;Amendment amended the United States Constitution so that slavery and servitude was illegal and it gave Congress the power to enforce it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was also a leading supporter of the 1866 Civil Rights Bill that was designed to protect freed slaves form Southern Black Codes.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Trumbull was one of seven Republicans who broke party ranks and voted against the conviction of President Johnson during his impeachment trial in the Senate. In 1872 he joined other Liberal Republicans in supporting Horace Greeley’s presidential candidacy against the reelection of President Grant.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding. His second marriage was to Mary Ingraham, on November 3, 1877, with whom he had two daughters, Alma and Mae. Only one son survived Trumbull in death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He died June 25, 1896 in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource record for the Lyman Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a title="Lyman Trumbull Family Papers" href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other related resource records containing from Lyman Trumbull's father and other family members may be found in the Benjamin Trumbull Family Papers and Lamb-Mather-Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois.

&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding.

                <elementText elementTextId="452493">
                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois. Trumbull remained in the United States Senate until 1873 after which he resumed practice of law in Chicago. In 1880 he tried as a Democrat for Governor of Illinois but was unsuccessful. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;While in the United States Senate he favored new bills opposing black slavery, passing a bill ending slavery in District of Columbia, which was amended, allowing blacks to testify in federal court and supported a bill which forbade the use of the Union Army to return runaway slaves to their owners.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In 1864, Trumbull worked with another senator to create the Freedman’s Bureau to help blacks with housing and, later, education.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He also voted for the first reconstruction act that created a new voters list that included African Americans.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trumbull’s most prominent legislative achievement was his proposal of the 13th Amendment originally written by Senator John Henderson.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The 13th&amp;nbsp;Amendment amended the United States Constitution so that slavery and servitude was illegal and it gave Congress the power to enforce it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was also a leading supporter of the 1866 Civil Rights Bill that was designed to protect freed slaves form Southern Black Codes.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Trumbull was one of seven Republicans who broke party ranks and voted against the conviction of President Johnson during his impeachment trial in the Senate. In 1872 he joined other Liberal Republicans in supporting Horace Greeley’s presidential candidacy against the reelection of President Grant.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding. His second marriage was to Mary Ingraham, on November 3, 1877, with whom he had two daughters, Alma and Mae. Only one son survived Trumbull in death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He died June 25, 1896 in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource record for the Lyman Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a title="Lyman Trumbull Family Papers" href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other related resource records containing from Lyman Trumbull's father and other family members may be found in the Benjamin Trumbull Family Papers and Lamb-Mather-Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

                <elementText elementTextId="452493">
                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois. Trumbull remained in the United States Senate until 1873 after which he resumed practice of law in Chicago. In 1880 he tried as a Democrat for Governor of Illinois but was unsuccessful. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;While in the United States Senate he favored new bills opposing black slavery, passing a bill ending slavery in District of Columbia, which was amended, allowing blacks to testify in federal court and supported a bill which forbade the use of the Union Army to return runaway slaves to their owners.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In 1864, Trumbull worked with another senator to create the Freedman’s Bureau to help blacks with housing and, later, education.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He also voted for the first reconstruction act that created a new voters list that included African Americans.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trumbull’s most prominent legislative achievement was his proposal of the 13th Amendment originally written by Senator John Henderson.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The 13th&amp;nbsp;Amendment amended the United States Constitution so that slavery and servitude was illegal and it gave Congress the power to enforce it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was also a leading supporter of the 1866 Civil Rights Bill that was designed to protect freed slaves form Southern Black Codes.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Trumbull was one of seven Republicans who broke party ranks and voted against the conviction of President Johnson during his impeachment trial in the Senate. In 1872 he joined other Liberal Republicans in supporting Horace Greeley’s presidential candidacy against the reelection of President Grant.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding. His second marriage was to Mary Ingraham, on November 3, 1877, with whom he had two daughters, Alma and Mae. Only one son survived Trumbull in death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He died June 25, 1896 in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource record for the Lyman Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a title="Lyman Trumbull Family Papers" href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other related resource records containing from Lyman Trumbull's father and other family members may be found in the Benjamin Trumbull Family Papers and Lamb-Mather-Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I find things here in a better condition than I expected. Our friends are hopeful &amp;amp; claim the county. This is a great point, to have confidence. Arrangements are being made to send men to all the precincts to remain among the people till after election. Ingersol is here &amp;amp; will speak to night.  He speaks encouragingly of our prospects where he has been.  Says McCarty is working actively &amp;amp; efficiently in the Wabash District.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall go to Belleville in the morning.  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours truly

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov. R. Yates,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dear Sir:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Enclosed please find a corrected statement of the Census of Ill. by counties, which I have rec'd from the Census Bureau.  You will see that the aggregate differs somewhat from that contained in the statement sent Mr. Hurlbut some days ago.  I suppose this to be complete, &amp;amp; were it not Sunday so that I cannot see the superintendent, I would apply to him for his official certificate to that effect. I suppose the discrepancy between this &amp;amp; the former statement has arisen from the fact that the former statement was not complete &amp;amp; from errors in computation. I do not know that you will
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;receive this in time to correct your congressional apportionment, in case any correction should be necessary.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The next Congress will be composed of members listed under the census of 1850; &amp;amp; it will not be till after the 4th of March 1863, that those listed on the census of 1860 will be entitled to seats. I mention this because of a rumor that some supposed Ill. could get four additional members into the next Congress. This is a mistake.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours truly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Springfield. Ills
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours of the 20th. is received. It would afford me great pleasure, I assure you, to assist in obtaining an appointment and transfer of the son of Mr. Lansing to the regular Army, and as far as my influence is desired it will be given, but the Secretary of War has adopted an inflexible rule, not to appoint persons from civil life, or make transfers from the Voluntary, to offices in the regular Army. This is for the benefit of men in the ranks who distinguish themselves on the battlefield, and deserve promotion,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours Very Truly,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your letter has been indorsed to the Secy of War, 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Washington Jany 26/63
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Application of Hon Mr Lansing received Sec'y of War has adopted an inflexible rule not to make transfer from volunteer to regular Army.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;M L 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Send to 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Mr Lansing of Legislature
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;File

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon. Richd. Yates.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor &amp;amp;c
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Springfield. Ills
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours of the 20th. is received. It would afford me great pleasure, I assure you, to assist in obtaining an appointment and transfer of the son of Mr. Lansing to the regular Army, and as far as my influence is desired it will be given, but the Secretary of War has adopted an inflexible rule, not to appoint persons from civil life, or make transfers from the Voluntary, to offices in the regular Army. This is for the benefit of men in the ranks who distinguish themselves on the battlefield, and deserve promotion,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours Very Truly,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your letter has been indorsed to the Secy of War, 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Washington Jany 26/63
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Application of Hon Mr Lansing received Sec'y of War has adopted an inflexible rule not to make transfer from volunteer to regular Army.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;M L 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Send to 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Mr Lansing of Legislature
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;File
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Write to President.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Governor,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you not ashamed of yourself to insist on my making a speech at Burlington, when I am nearly [worn?] out of my boots in going round this State?  So far from going into Iowa where Republicanism needs no assistance, I shall expect you to meet me at Galesburg &amp;amp; Monmouth &amp;amp; make speeches at both places – We are having a close fight in 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt; Ill.  The Democrats are spending money like water &amp;amp; [makeing?]  a desperate effort to retain possession of the Legislature--  
&lt;p&gt;Of course I would come to Burlington, if Iowa was in doubt &amp;amp; it was supposed I could do any good; but of course you are aware that I shall be very much worn out with the speaking which I shall be compelled to do in this State.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Will you not visit me at Galesburg &amp;amp; Monmouth  It is possible that I may also go to Oquawaka.  I am somewhat hoarse now &amp;amp; do not mean to make any more appointments till I see how I can stand the [canvass?].  Write me at Springfield   
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Truly Yours

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Governor,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you not ashamed of yourself to insist on my making a speech at Burlington, when I am nearly [worn?] out of my boots in going round this State?  So far from going into Iowa where Republicanism needs no assistance, I shall expect you to meet me at Galesburg &amp;amp; Monmouth &amp;amp; make speeches at both places – We are having a close fight in 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt; Ill.  The Democrats are spending money like water &amp;amp; [makeing?]  a desperate effort to retain possession of the Legislature--  
&lt;p&gt;Of course I would come to Burlington, if Iowa was in doubt &amp;amp; it was supposed I could do any good; but of course you are aware that I shall be very much worn out with the speaking which I shall be compelled to do in this State.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Will you not visit me at Galesburg &amp;amp; Monmouth  It is possible that I may also go to Oquawaka.  I am somewhat hoarse now &amp;amp; do not mean to make any more appointments till I see how I can stand the [canvass?].  Write me at Springfield   
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Truly Yours  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hon. L. Trumbull

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Washington, June 29, 1862.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dear Senator, I respectfully claim your friendly protection in the following circumstance.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Baron Zaklika at present residing in Galena would wish to enter any of the new regiments of Volunteers to be formed by the State Illinois.  The Baron served several years in the Austrian cavalry guards, was an Aide to an Austrian Arch-Duke &amp;amp; is as thorough a Soldier as any body in our whole army.  The Baron is a thorough gentleman and man of honor, worth to serve the cause of the American people. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Give him a friendly and &lt;u&gt;warm&lt;/u&gt; word for H.E. the Governor of Illinois who will never regret to have made use of the capacities of Br. Zaklika.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If the Governor will only wish to give him a chance, the Governor will be able to find some kind of military occupation for the officer, in a new regiment, or as an instructor, or an inspector, or an Aide to himself or to any colonel.  I am responsible before you that any duty assigned to Br. Z. will be perfectly fulfilled.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For all these reasons
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;I ask the favorable support of your friendship, &amp;amp; am as you know me, your truly &amp;amp;
&lt;p&gt;Devoted
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gurowski
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Senator Trumbull.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;etc etc etc
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;Washington, June 27/61
&lt;p&gt;Gov. Yates,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dr. Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The enclosed is from Count Garowski, a Gentleman of high character and intelligence engaged in the State Dept.  He is a warm advocate of our cause &amp;amp; I should be much gratified, if you could do something for his Friend, Baron Zaklika.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am sure the services of one of Zaklika's experience must be valuable in organizing and disciplining fresh troops -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If possible, I beg of you, give Zaklika a place, &amp;amp; in so doing you will, as I think promote the public service &amp;amp; at the same time you will greatly oblige, Your Friend
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull
&lt;/p&gt;

                <elementText elementTextId="452493">
                  <text>&lt;p&gt;Lyman Trumbull was born in Colchester, Connecticut on October 12, 1813, to Benjamin and Elizabeth (Mather) Trumbull. In 1837 he moved to Belleville, Illinois, and won election to the state legislature as a Democrat in 1840.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was appointed Secretary of State from 1841-1842 and later a justice of the State Supreme Court from 1848-1853.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As an opponent of slavery Trumbull joined the Republican Party in 1854 and ran successfully against Abraham Lincoln to become a United States Senator from Illinois. Trumbull remained in the United States Senate until 1873 after which he resumed practice of law in Chicago. In 1880 he tried as a Democrat for Governor of Illinois but was unsuccessful. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;While in the United States Senate he favored new bills opposing black slavery, passing a bill ending slavery in District of Columbia, which was amended, allowing blacks to testify in federal court and supported a bill which forbade the use of the Union Army to return runaway slaves to their owners.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In 1864, Trumbull worked with another senator to create the Freedman’s Bureau to help blacks with housing and, later, education.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He also voted for the first reconstruction act that created a new voters list that included African Americans.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trumbull’s most prominent legislative achievement was his proposal of the 13th Amendment originally written by Senator John Henderson.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The 13th&amp;nbsp;Amendment amended the United States Constitution so that slavery and servitude was illegal and it gave Congress the power to enforce it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Trumbull was also a leading supporter of the 1866 Civil Rights Bill that was designed to protect freed slaves form Southern Black Codes.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Trumbull was one of seven Republicans who broke party ranks and voted against the conviction of President Johnson during his impeachment trial in the Senate. In 1872 he joined other Liberal Republicans in supporting Horace Greeley’s presidential candidacy against the reelection of President Grant.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He married Julia Jayne (d. Aug. 16, 1868) in June of 1843 and they had four children. Julia Jayne served as a bridesmaid at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's wedding. His second marriage was to Mary Ingraham, on November 3, 1877, with whom he had two daughters, Alma and Mae. Only one son survived Trumbull in death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;He died June 25, 1896 in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource record for the Lyman Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library may be found at &lt;a title="Lyman Trumbull Family Papers" href="https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://illinois.as.atlas-sys.com/repositories/2/resources/41&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other related resource records containing from Lyman Trumbull's father and other family members may be found in the Benjamin Trumbull Family Papers and Lamb-Mather-Trumbull Family Papers at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

                  <text>Scott Wike Lucas was an Illinois attorney and politician. Born in Cass County, Illinois, on February 19, 1892, Lucas attended public schools and Illinois Wesleyan University, where he played baseball and other college sports. While in college, during his summers, he played baseball in the Three-I League, a semiprofessional baseball league organized in Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa. After college, Lucas attended law school and was admitted to the bar in 1915. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lucas served in the United States Army during World War I, rising to the rank of lieutenant. He would later continue his military association by serving as commander of the Illinois Department of the American Legion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After serving as state's attorney for Mason County in the 1920s, Lucas ran in the 1932 Democratic primary as a candidate for the United States Senate from Illinois; however, he lost his primary bid to William H. Dieterich. Governor Henry Horner then appointed Lucas chairman of the State Tax Commission, which Lucas directed from 1933 to 1935. In 1934, Lucas won election to the United States House of Representatives from Illinois. Four years later, he won election to the U.S. Senate and was reelected in 1944. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Following President Harry S. Truman's reelection in 1948, Lucas became Senate Majority Leader. He served in that capacity only two years, losing the 1950 general election in Illinois to Republican Everett Dirksen. Lucas died on February 22, 1968. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Scott W. Lucas Collection consists of 38 photographs from Lucas' early life and political career. In addition to images of such influential American politicians as John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson, the collection contains several political cartoons satirizing Lucas and other politicians.</text>

Temple went on to serve as editor of the Illinois Rural Electric News.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of people, places, and events in southern and central Illinois. Several photographs highlight life in Fairfield, Wayne City, and Mill Shoals including blood drives, holiday celebrations, and local school events.</text>
