In October, 1878, he opened an office at Washington, D. C., as he found he could represent the interests of his clients before the courts and depart- ments of the United States in a greater degree by constant personal attention. He has able assistants in his office at Columbus and many of the cities of the State, giving his personal attention as required in the same.


On April 18, 1861, when the Governor of Ohio, William Dennison, called for volunteers, under the proclamation of President Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Tallmadge was placed as quartermaster on the staff of Henry Wilson, the ranking major- general of the Ohio militia, and at once commenced active duty in receiving and placing into quarters the troops arriving at Columbus, the general rendezvous. The following May, when the militia of the State was reorganized under act of the legislature, Mr. Tallmadge was commissioned for five years as Assistant Quartermaster and Commissary of Subsistence by the Governor of Ohio, with the rank of captain in the Ohio volunteer militia, being first sent to the camp of the Seventeenth Ohio Infantry at Lancaster. When that regiment was ordered into active service, Captain Tallmadge was placed in charge of a steam- boat with supplies and arms sent by the Governor of Ohio to troops under General Mcclellan, who was preparing to make an advance into West Virginia. Arriving at Parkersburg, and delivering said supplies to General W. S. Rosecrans, then in command of thirteen regiments of Ohio and Indiana threemonths volun- teers, Captain Tallmadge was detailed to serve on the staff of that general as quar- termaster, and marched with the brigade via Clarksburg, until the battle of Rich Mountain, July 11, 1861. He continued on active duty as assistant quartermaster and commissary for one year, having been ordered to various points where Ohio

troops were in rendezvous and in service needing arms and supplies. He accom- panied the hospital boats sent by the Governor of Ohio with physicians and nurses for taking care of the wounded at the battle of Shiloh, arriving two days after the battle, and was placed in charge of the detail which conveyed the wounded to the boats. In July, 1863, Governor Tod ordered the State militia to Camp Chase, four miles from the Capitol, and Captain Tallmadge was placed on duty asthe quartermaster. This call was occasioned by the raid then being made through Indi- ana and Ohio by the Confederate General Morgan.


He is a member of the Federal Bar Association of the District of Columbia ; also of the Burnside Post, Number 8, of the Department of the Potomac of the Grand Army of the Republic, serving the third term as Chaplain. He has served as Aide-de-Camp on the staff of Colonel Charles P. Lincoln and of A. F. Dins- more, Commanders of the Department of the Potomac, and in the same capacity on the staff of Commander-in-Chief William Warner and Wheelock G. Veazey. During most of his life he has been a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, holding the office of trustee of Wesley Chapel in Columbus for ten years, and the past ten years leader of the Stranger's Class in the Metropolitan Methodist Epis- copal Church, Washington City.


In October, 1849, he married. in Lancaster, Hon. John T. Brazee's daughter Ellen E., who died at Columbus, February 2, 1865. He was remarried June 27, 1867, to Harriet Washington, daughter of Major Andrew Parks, of Charles- ton, Kanawha County, West Virginia. By his first marriage he had six children, two having died in infancy; the eldest surviving, Sallie, born January 9, 1852, resides at Cleveland, married to Henry A. Stevens. His two sons -Frank, born January 9, 1854, and Darius, born May 9, 1859 - are well known and active citizens of Columbus, the former an agent and adjuster for several insurance com- panies, and the latter chief stockholder and manager of the " Tallmadge Hard- ware Company." The youngest, Theodore, born November 18, 1862, is an attor- ney-at-law residing at Washington, D. C. By his second marriage he has two children, Flora, born October 1, 1868, and Andrew, born January 16, 1870, the latter making his mark in the new and opening field of electrical appliances.


HENRY S. HALLWOOD


[Portrait opposite page 336.]


Was born April 30, 1848, near Warrington, Lancashire, England, and was the second son of Captain Henry and Elizabeth Hallwood. Captain Hallwood was a native of Liverpool ; while a young boy ran off to sea, and at the age of nineteen was promoted to a ship's captaincy. Later, while hunting scals in floe ice, he became detached from the vessel's crew, and for three days and nights was lost, but on the fourth day he was found frozen to the ice and apparently dead. He was restored to consciousness by rubbing him with snow and the use of stimulants.


While the name of Hallwood is composed of two very common syllables, yet the two combined form probably the most uncommon name on this continent, no other family of this name being known to the writer. In England, also, the name is uncommon, yet there is a parish of this name near Runcorn, in Cheshire, that dates back many centuries.


The subject of this sketch was educated in private schools and received what might be termed only a fair education, passing poor examinations in Latin, and the like, but good ones in the three Rs, his mensuration, trigonometry and Euclid afterwards coming into good play in the practice of mine engineering. At sixteen he was apprenticed to Jackson A. Ackers, chemist of Manchester, and later to


855


REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS.


Mr. Grime, of Warrington, England, with whom a good commercial education was obtained, and to whose care, instruction and ability the subject of this sketch acknowledges his indebtedness. Shortly after the completion of this apprentice- ship the eldest brother, Thomas H., died. He was the junior member of the firm of Hallwood & Son, and was succeeded by Henry S. Hallwood, Junior, in the partnership, which arrangement lasted for several years.


On August 22, 1874, a picnic was planned to which Miss Annie Lockey, of Northwich, was invited. She was the daughter of James T. Lockey, owner of the Novelty Ironworks, and a salt manufacturer. She being only sweet sixteen, the picnic was held by special license, at the Barnton Parish Church, and a cere- mony was performed by the Rev. Mr. Willetts which made Miss Lockey and H. S. Hallwood man and wife. As a result of this happy union eight children have been given to them : Lillie, born September 25, 1875; Thomas Henry, born June 1, 1877; Nellie, born January 30, 1880; Beatrice Hale, born October 11, 1883; Frank Percy, born November 16, 1885 ; Harold, born November 12, 1886; Frank Graham, born April 23, 1889 ; and Nathan Abbott, born October 22, 1891. The marriage ceremony was followed by a hasty departure for the land of the free and the home of the brave. The angry parents of an only daughter at sixteen are usually not very anxious to see a soninlaw. To escape this anger, and to elude pursuit, a nom de plume was adopted, but dropped upon a reconciliation and re- turn to England for the parental blessing. After a few months' stay, a return to the United States was decided upon.


Mr. Hallwood spent ten years in West Virginia practicing as a mining engi- neer and coal operator, in which business heavy losses from sudden freshets and ice gorges, breaking loose fleets of loaded coal barges, proved to be financial dis- asters of a serious nature, which it required years of labor to liquidate and over- come. Tiring of such a risky pursuit, Mr. Hallwood decided six years ago to remove to Columbus, Ohio, and enter into the contracting business. First was organized the firm of McMillen, Knauss & Hallwood, which, after two years' suc- cessful operations, was merged into the Ohio Paving Company, of which Colonel N. B. Abbott is the president and H. S. Hallwood the engineer and manager. Under the direction of its able and efficient president this company has done an immense business. One of its specialties has been the manufacture and disposal of the Hallwood paving block, twelve factories having engaged in its production, viz. : two in Columbus, two in Zanesville, two in Portsmouth, one at Athens, one at Middleport, one at Logan, one at Nelsonville, one at Robbins and one at Addy- stone. Besides these establishments, which have a capacity of 350,000 blocks per day, there are are several others which make other material for the Ohio Paving Company. The Hallwood block has been laid in many cities; in the North, at Grand Rapids and Saginaw; in the South, at Lexington, Kentucky, and Chattanooga ; in the East, at Hartford and Baltimore; and at Cincinnati in the West. Mr. Hallwood is the senior member of the firm of H. S. Hallwood & Com- pany, contractors for the completion of the intercepting sewer; also the West Side system of sewers, which is the entire system of a separate city, involving many miles of sewer ranging in diameter from two to seven feet. Mr. Hall- wood is also a member of three other successful contracting firms and owner of the patents for the International Cash Register which is now being pre- pared for the market. He is a member of Excelsior Lodge of Odd Fellows, of the Columbus Owls, of the Columbus Elks, of Columbus Lodge Number 30, F. & A. M .; of Mt. Vernon Commandery Knights Templar, a 32ยบ A. A. S. R .; and of the Columbus Shrine Club.
