GENERAL THOMAS EWING

The Society has recently received copies of a very

interesting pamphlet entitled "The Struggle for Free-

dom in Kansas," by General Thomas Ewing. This was

published in 1894, while the General was still living. It

is our hope to reproduce this at some time in the coming

year with other material setting forth important events

in the life of General Ewing. In the struggle to make

Kansas a free state, in the Civil War, in the Third Con-

stitutional Convention of Ohio, and in other positions,

General Ewing was a prominent figure, and a sketch of

his active and honorable career deserves a place among

Ohio's illustrious sons.
