When in th¿ Northwest
Grant was a plowboy on his fath­
er's farm. Against his will, he was
sent to West Point. In 1854, his
drinking habits forced him to resign
from the army. He tried farming and
real estate, fpiled at both and went
back to his father's tanning shop. When
the Civil War broke out in 1861, he
could not even get back into the army.
Finally, he received a commission and
his sensational victories rapidly promot­
ed him to the position of Commander-
In-Chief of the Armies.
Grant was a splendid horseman—the best
at West Point. During the Mexican War,
in 1848, he fought side by side with Robert
E. Lee. who later opposed him as Com­
mander of the Confederate forces.

“Becording the number of miles
sailed, names of the ships under
my command and a few statisti­
cal notes,” he volunteered.
“How many miles and how many
ships. Commander?”
'‘Up to January 1, 1036, the grand
total reached 1,289,810 nautical
ndles on twenty-seven vessels, none
of which was lost while under my
command. The first million miles

that period of time not a single man
had to be put in Irons. The fur­

my travels is Hamburg, Germany,
and the furthest south Is Adelaide,
Australia.”
Have you. throughout your voy­
aging ever observed a phenomenon
at sea that could not be scientifi­
cally accounted for? Are there any
insoluble mysteries hinted at In the
log book? Have you developed any
superstitions?”
“None. There is a reason for

with such meticulous care, turned
