English Immigrant Boy Who Bent the Union to Freedom

Edward Dickinson Baker, English born and American by adoption, rose to high office in three states, led volunteers in the Mexican and Civil Wars, addressed Congress in uniform, and died at Ball’s Bluff. A noted orator nicknamed the Gray Eagle, Father Baker, and a defender of the Union, his career intertwined with Lincoln and the rise of California’s public life. He spoke across the nation urging liberty, union, and constitutional fidelity. He is remembered for speeches in San Francisco Union Square and New York Union Square, and for introducing Lincoln to crowds.

More Game in Country Than in Days of Indian

An author argues that average life is cropping and time spent persists. Citing Pennsylvania as an example, the state game commission notes 1823 saw beaver and deer numbers, while 1981 shows large deer kills. 40,000 Pennsylvania deer died in winter. The piece traces beaver pelts, muskrat records, and rising hunting licenses from 1836 to 1938, noting species shifts and pent-up population growth.
