Captain Covell of the First, amid all the confusion
of the retreat, tried to get his men to make 2

who rallied around their leader in his vain attempt

Cullough returned to McLean county. In the fall
of 1840 he was elected sheriff, an office which he
held for three successive terms, He was next
elected circuit clerk and held that office four
guccessive terme. It was during this time that he
probably met Lincoln, as there is no record of their
having met during the Blackhawk war.
At the outbreak of the Civil war, McCullough
was exempt from service because of the loss of
his right arm (which had been torn off In a
threshing machine in 1840), defective sight in one
eye and his age. But he was determined to serve
and in August, 1861, he obtained permission from
President Lincoln to be mustered into the service
as lieutenant colonel of the Fourth Illinois cavalry.
“William McCullough was the ideal cavalryman,”
writes one historian. “He was a superb horseman
of martial appearance, with a full, resonant voice,
white halr and beard, a natural leader of men,
a courage that feared no one; watchful, careful
of his men, he soon became one of General Grant's
most trusted officers.”
He took part in the capture of Fort Henry and
Fort Donelson, and went through the battles of
Shiloh and Corinth. After entering Corinth the

This letter, revealing as it does the great heart
of the man who in the darkest days of his career
as President of a nation engaged in civil war,
write a letter of sympathy to the daughter of an
old-time friend, is strikingly similar in tone to the
Bixby letter, which it antedates by nearly two
years, A comparison of the two shows the same
tenderness of spirit, the same sincere sympathy
and the simple, direct phraseology which marks
so many of the utterances of Abraham Lincoln and
makes “them among the best examples of noble
English prose ever written. The text of the
Bixby letter follows:
