LOGAN, JOHN A.
(1826 - 1886) Union major general whose successes at Belmont and Atlanta won him the praises of Grant and Sherman. He also founded Memorial Day. A.E.S. "Jno. A. Logan" as Senator on verso of a 2pp. 4to., St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 11, 1879 from former Lt. Col. David C. Coleman, 8th Missouri, to the president requesting a marshal's position in Missouri. Logan adds a few lines stating that the application was forwarded to President Hayes. Very good.
