Colonel Bissell had earned a most enviable reputation as a gallant sol- dier in the war with Mexico and as having backed Jefferson Davis down in a dueling affair the latter had provoked with Bissell, was outspoken upon the issues most prominent in polit- ical discussions, and people had settled it before that he was to be the standard bearer in the state campaign. The tempo- rary organization had hardly been effected when Mr. Munsell. A delegate from Edgar county, whose name has been read here ...today as a delegate, sprang to his feet and nominated Colonel Bissell for governor, regardless of the usage in such cases. Convention, May 29, 1856. 93 The people having settled this part of the business in advance, the nomination was confirmed with a yell, after which the business of a permanent organization of the convention, with General Palmer as permanent president, was proceeded with. During the absence of the committees many speeches were made. Lovejoy (and by the way Owen Lovejoy was the greatest stump speaker I ever listened to, ) Browning, Cook, Wil- liams, Arnold and among them one Emory, a free state refugee from Kansas, all made speeches.
