While on a business visit in New Orleans, in December. 1860, he had an opportunity of learning the growing spirit of secession, being advised by friends to leave the St. Charles Hotel in order to escape a mob. In September, 1861, he entered the army as Major of the Second Illinois Cavalry (Col. Silas Noble), and. In the next few months, was stationed successively at Cairo, Bird's Point and Faducah, Ky., and, in February, 1862, led the advance of G^eneral McClemand's division in the attack on Fo...rt Donelson. Here he was severely wounded ; but, after a few weeks in hospital at St. Louis, was sufficiently recovered to rejoin his regiment soon after the battle of Shiloh. Unable to perform cavalry duty, he was attached to the staff of General McClemand during the advance on Corinth, but, in October following, at the head of 400 men of his regiment, was transferred to the command of General McPherson. Early in 1868 he was promoted Lieutenant-Colonel, and soon after to a oolcmelcy, taking part in the movement against Vicksburg.
