In early life he had followed the trade of carpentering with his father, but later on he successfully engaged in farming, stock-raising and milling. He was deeply interested in the breeding and development of horses, and was the originator, promotor and first President of the Indiana Trotting and Pacing Horse Breeders' Association, which he lived to see firmly established.
As a politician, few men in Indiana outranked him for sagacity, and during Governor Morton's regime he was one of the great War Governor's closest friends and counsellors. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and a Free- mason of high standing. To the latter order he was especially devoted, and he practiced the teachings of the Mystic Tie in spirit and in truth.
His death was keenly felt in the community in which he had lived so long and for which he had done so much, and citizens of all classes abandoned their usual vocations in order that they might do homage at the grave of one who had in life been the unswerving friend of the poor and distressed. At all times he was generous, and in all things just. His charity was as broad as humanity itself, and the world was the better by his being in it. Of him it may be said :
" He never made a brow look dark, nor caused a tear But when he died." .
One who knew him thirty years, and who was opposed to him in many a hard-fought political contest, wrote this truth- ful and beautiful tribute to his memory : " Vengeance had

no abiding place in his heart. He never suffered a wrong he did not freely forgive. The virtue of goodness in Francis M. Busby made him great."
JAMES BRAGG
Was born in Fayette County, Ind., February 10, 1830; moved to the east side of Boone County, Ind., on Eagle Creek, in 1840; came to Lebanon November 1, 1849; was married to Margaret Kernodle April 27, 1851 ; was one of the contractors in building the present court house in Lebanon, in 1856-'57, in which he lost two years' hard work and what other money he was possessed with. At that time he was engaged in building many of the old-time brick buildings of Lebanon. He enlisted as a private in Company F, 40th Regi- ment Indiana Vol. Infantry, at Lebanon, October 7, 1861; promoted Second Lieutenant November 18, 1861; promoted First Lieutenant April 1, 1862.

EARLY LIFE AND TIMES IN
1864, at which time so many of our brave soldiers fell. As autumn leaves fall, so fell the bravest of the 40th Regiment at Renessaw Mountain, Ga. He was engaged in the battle of Peach Tree Creek, Ga., July 20, 1864; was engaged in all the skirmishes to the taking of Atlanta, Ga., after which he was sent back with the 4th army corps to take care of Hood and the rebel army. Was in the skirmish at Columbia, Tenn., in November, 1864; was engaged in battle at Springhill, Tenn., November 29, 1864. He was prominently engaged in the battle of Franklin, Tenn., November 30, 1864, where he was slightly wounded and had his sash shot from his shoulder. Mr. Bragg says of this battle: "Our division, that of the 2d of the 4th army corps, bore the brunt of this terrible, bloody battle, losing more than 2,000 men. This was the hardest fought and bloodiest battle, for the number engaged, during the war. It was a hand-to-hand contest. The rebels, being stimulated by the aid of whisky, were urged on by the valor of their officers to break through our lines and march on to Nashville, Tenn., only thirty miles distant, and the home of many of the brave, rebel soldiers who fell to rise no more at that bloody battle. Each charge made by the rebels was as stubbornly resisted by us Union soldiers. Never wavering or faltering, but each one vieing with each other in deeds of valor, every one of us baring our breasts to the enemy's guns to do or to die." He was engaged in the two- days battle of Nashville, Tenn., December 15 and 16, 1864 ; marched to East Tennessee, then back to Nashville, Tenn. He then went to New Orleans, La., and crossed the Gulf of Mexico to Texas. He was mustered out at Texarkana, Texas, December 21, 1865, by reason of his services being no longer required, as the war was ended. He re-crossed the gulf, and was discharged at Indianapolis, January 23, 1866.
