He was severely wounded at Corinth, and his active service in 198 Digitized by Google GOVERNOR RICHARD J. OGLESBY 199 the Civil War was oven Although he was elevated to the rank of Major-General, he was assigned to duty at Washing- ton, where he remained until 1864, and saw no more service on the field of battle.
He enjoyed the distinction of being elected Governor of Illinois three times, first in 1864, again in 1872, resigning the following year, after having been elected to the United States... Senate; and after he had served one term in the Senate and retired to private life, he was again elected Governor of Illi- nois in 1884.
Governor Oglesby was a remarkable man in many re- spects. Judged by the standards of Lincoln and Grant, he was not a great man. In some respects he was a man of far more than ordinary ability. He was a wonderfully eloquent speaker, and I have heard him on occasions move audiences to a greater extent than almost any orator, aside from the late Robert G. Ingersoll.
