The child, looking Into Ills face*iM an Incredulous voice asked: *'Is you'Old Meade?'" "I'm 'Old MeadeT" Then followed a succession of screams as the child struggled to release her­ self, while the General was convulsed with laughter.

A report of an interview with him reads as fol­ lows. *'Oue of the brightest old men tn the conference Is Father CartwHglit, who generally sits near the reporters and often keeps up a.running comment on the speeches made by his younger brethren. His frewsley hair, his big bushy eyebrows. Ids trimmed whiskers, and his whole manner and make up give him assort of Rip Van Winkle look, but he is not asleep by any means and the young men who are crowding forward to take iiis place, need to look sharp when the old gentleman is ou their track. Sitting so ne*r the table one of .the reporters chatted with Father Cartwrigiit and learned that ho Is now 74 years old and began preach­ ing in lewa in 1833, just after the Black hawk war. He was chaplain in the Ninety Second Illinois regiment and was wild Kllpatrick in the advance of Sherman's army In the march te the sea.

His parents were in humble circumstances, and Die family large, making It necessary for the jboye "to strike out" few themselves early fii life, Which they; did to good purpose, all of tlkcm making act I ve ami good cltixena.. . At the age of fifteen, In the year ol #836, the subject of this paper started for the new west, finding his way to the then little town of Sycamore, where he hired out on the farm of Win. Mil­ ler, learning the ways of firming In Illinois, a season of hard work and val­ uable experience to the young lad. The next season he procure;! a job as a hand on the new dam beir.g built at Geneva, on the Fox River, the fine water powers of which were then be­ ing developed. The next season was spent working In a bride yard at Rock- ford. and the nexthe drove an ox team in the work of building th« LaSalle basin, on the Illinois canal, also during the time making a claim to a fine piece of land near Sycamore. Having spent about five years In tho west, during which lie had grown from a boy Into robust manhood, under the genial Influence of the prairie atr and hard work, lie decided to return to his early home, bear Schenectady, N. Y., and devoto a time to procuring a bet­ ter edncttleu. For this purpoee be entered the Cherry Valley academy, then one et-the flourishing, institutions of that section. As soon as his school was over Mr. Eiiwood at ones entered upon work Again. One of the principal indurtrioa of the Mohawk valley was the raising of broom corn, and to this he tUrn#d his attention. That ho had the confi­ dence of the landed proprietors Is shown by the fact that we soea fkMl hlra purchasing a •15,000 farm, whlen also shows Ids ceufldonoe In his dsent; while the (urtli^r fact th|| sold the same for 917,000 proves lhoi t h e c o n f i d e n c e w a s n o t m i s p l a c e d . , V . , We soon find this young man running A a ploying at one time 190 m«»; and at the age of twenty nine years elected to the lower branch of tho Now York legislature. In nil of which be aoqultted himeelf with honor. fill he found the duties of public life Irksome, and having made up ids mind to be a successful business inao, as soon as heveuldbe releesed from his Ie; latlve duties hs itti>ned to the cut Ion of his i^ffoua euterprises wlth renewed energy. ^But he tliouglit be saw opportunities for greater success in that great west where lie had spent a few years, and Wliere he still held the land he had en* teiod, and wii^re he had already iutro- ducodlhe cultivation of broom corn. So In the year 1857 he came on with his family, and came to stay, at onoe enter­ ing upon the hardware trade In Syca­ more, until ids manufacturing InterOeta grew to such proportions as to fully Ids time. In this enterprise Mr. Ellweod has been very successful. He commenced the manufacture of various farming implements, most ot them invented by himself, an entirely new enterprise, which In a few years has grown to era- ploy a large force of men aad about a quarter million dollars capital. * But. the strain of close application began to toll en Ills iron constitution, so that about two years ago lie was obliged to drop the active oversight of this busi­ ness. though still retaining his interest, his friends at one time fearing his health was permanently undermined. A* vigorous in the pursuit of health as in that of wealth, Mr. Eiiwood sought the advicf of the most eminent physicians of this country and Europe entering upon a course of treatment, which, with his freedom from care, has already restored his old time health, so that now, at the ripe age of sixty- two, lie considers himself nearly as sound physically as in his younger days. Mr. Eiiwood Is a self-made man, aa. well as as a successful one; he has a. broad, comprehensive mind, clearly foreseeing tho probable results, ef a proposed line of action whicU he* att his life enabled him to ceruaiAn4 «uft- eess, making his advice ns'.chsoo^hl foe and highly prized by hit Mr. Eiiwood is largely bslSteslsd ift business.
