remained with that institution until May. 1889, when he resigned to accept the position of reporter for the Henry Circuit Court. In connection with his duties as reporter, he took up the abstract business and has now the only set of abstract books in the county. He continued to hold the onerous position of reporter until the Spring of 1902, except during the time he was engaged in the Spanish- American War. While attending to his duties as reporter and abstracter, he read law and was in 1804 admitted to the bar of the Henry Circuit Court. Judge Eugene H. Bundy, presiding.


As a reporter, Mr. Ogborn had established an enviable reputation for rapidity and accuracy of service and was in the employ of the State Board of Tax Com- missioners of Indiana at four annual sessions ; he was the official stenographer for the United States Senate Committee on Territories, of which Senator Beveridge is chairman, during a tour of Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Indian ter- ritories. November, 1902, while they were making a special investigation of those territories with reference to their admission as States of the Union, and in addition on many occasions reported speeches and sermons.


When the Spanish-American War began. Albert D. Ogborn became the prime mover in the recruiting and organizing of what afterwards became Company G. 16Ist Indiana Infantry. It was mustered into the service of the United States July 12. 1898, and the entire regiment was mustered in at Indianapolis, July 15. 1808. The regiment remained in Camp Mount until August 11, 1898, when under orders it moved to Jacksonville, Florida, where on arrival it was assigned to the First Brigade. Third Division, Seventh Army Corps, under the command of General Fitzhugh Lee. The Third Nebraska, Colonel William Jennings Bryan commanding, was a part of the brigade. The 16Ist Indiana was afterwards assigned to the First Brigade, Second Division of the Seventh Army Corps. Remaining at Jacksonville until October. 1898, it then moved to Savannah. Georgia, and on December 12th sailed from that point on the transport Sherman to Havana. Cuba, where it landed and marched through the city went into camp at Camp Columbia, Marianao. December 17, 1898, and there the regiment remained until ordered home. It arrived in Savanah, Georgia, March 31. 1899. and was mustered out there on April 30. 1899. A full and complete history of this splendid regiment will be found in chapter XXXI of this work, entitled the "Spanish-American War." The history of the regiment is the military history of Captain Albert D. Ogborn.


In 1900 Captain Ogborn was elected State Senator for the district composed of the counties of Henry, Fayette and Union, and served in the sessions of the General Assembly of 1901 and 1903. He was chairman of the Committee on Military Affairs : also of the Committee on Enrolled Bills; and was a member of the committees on Benevolent Institutions, Public Health, Insurance. Roads, and Congressional Apportionment, during the session of 1901. In the session of 1903. he was chairman of the Committee on Railroads, and a member of the committees on Rules, Finance, Roads, Federal Relations, Public Health, and Legislative Ap- portionment. Captain Ogborn took a prominent part in the conduct of legislative affairs both in committee and on the floor, every matter coming before the Senate for its action receiving his closest attention.


Prior to the Spanish-American War, Albert D. Ogborn had gained con-

siderable knowledge of military tactics from the fact that he had been for a number of years a member of the Uniformed Rank, Knights of Pythias, which is an organization patterned after that of the United States Army. He commanded. first. the New Castle Company, for a short time, and then for a period of five years was Lieutenant Colonel, and then for four years, Colonel of the Third Indiana Regiment of that organization. He did not surrender his command at the time of entering the United States service during the Spanish-American War. but was simply granted leave of absence, resuming the command on his return from the war. He was afterwards Colonel and Chief of Staff of Brigadier General Harry B. Smith, commanding the Indiana brigade, Uniform Rank. Knights of Pythias. After returning from the Spanish-American War, at the earnest solicitation of Governor James A. Mount, Captain Ogborn organized a company of militia which was mustered into the service of the State on Septem- ber 26, 1899, and was disbanded at the end of its three years' term of service. He resigned his captaincy in 1900 and went to Chicago to become the confidential secre- tary of Captain Harry S. New, of the Executive Committee of the Republican National Committee. In the campaign of 1904, Captain Ogborn occupied a like position under Captain New who was vice chairman of the Republican National Committee, and in charge of Western Headquarters.


MILITARY SERVICE OF THE OGBORN FAMILY.


Besides the military service of Captain Albert D. Ogborn as related above, his brother, Daniel Bradbury Ogborn, has followed the colors. He ran away from home, immediately after the Custer Massacre, and enlisted in Troop E. Fifth Cavalry U. S. A., and took part in the relief expedition to the Big Horn Country where the brave General Custer and his entire command had been wiped out by the hostile Indians, lead by the bloodthirsty chief, Sitting Bull.


Mrs. Tingley's son, Edwin Ogborn Tingley, was a member of the First Nebraska Volunteers in the Spanish-American War. He served in the Philippines and was dangerously wounded in one of the battles of the Aguinaldo Insurrection.


Mrs. Weyl's son, John Allen Weyl. enlisted April 26, 1898, in the United States Heavy Artillery and served during the Spanish-American War, being stationed at Fort Myer on the Potomac River, near Washington, D. C. He afterwards enlisted in the Thirty First U. S. Volunteers and served in the Philip- pines during the insurrection in those islands.


Not to be outdone in loyalty to the flag, Daniel Bradbury Ogborn's son, Clyde C .. enlisted in Company G, 16Ist Indiana Infantry, but much to his regret was rejected by the mustering officer, as he was not able to pass the physical examination.


Besides the foregoing, two uncles and six cousins of Captain Ogborn took part in the Civil War, but at this date the details of their service are not obtainable.


Though the Ogborn family, on the paternal side; is descended from a long line of Quaker ancestors to whom warfare is forbidden, yet their love of country has overtopped the formal dictates of religious faith. They have performed well their part in the service of their common country, like their maternal ancestor, David Bradbury, with his five years of service in the Revolutionary War, that memorable conflict which determined the destiny and civilization of the western world.
