Doggedness and persistence characterized the career and life of Ulysses S. Grant. The son of a tanner, he was bom at Point Pleasant, Ohio, April 27, 1822. As a youth he preferred the out-of-doors and instead of following his father in the tanning business, conducted the family farm, did teaming, and at intervals maintained a livery business between neighboring towns. He attended the village school and was given one year in the academy at Maysville, Ky. Ambitious to receive a higher training, he... secured an appointment to the U. S. Military Academy. He proved to be a good mathematician and an excellent horseman, but only an average student. Following graduation he was bre- vetted and later conunissioned a second lieutenant, which rank he held at the opening of the Mexican War. He volunteered to perform a hazardous messenger mission through the Mexican lines to bring up ammunition, which act, coupled with bravery in action, resulted in his promotion to first lieutenant.
Following the war he was stationed at various places, but found the army life on the Pacific coast so uncongenial, that in spite of a promotion to captaincy, he resigned in 1854 and re- turned to civil life.
