Th name of lie gallant soldier, (u'li.
W infield Scott Hancock, i- familiar to
millions of Americans. But few know nf
the many and great hardships which he
labored under before attaining hi.- present
honorable po-ition. lie was born . in
Montgomery county, l'ciin., February 14,
lS'Jl. His father wa- the owner of a
Well paying farm there. Unlike must
farmers, Mr. Hancock made up bis mind
to give his son all the henelits of a goud
education, At the age of six years be
was sent to ail academy for young gentle
ui 'ii in the neighborhood, lie remained
there until he was ll! years of age, when
he was graduated with high honors. His
parents thou wished to place him at work
in a large wholesale dry goods house in
Philadelphia, lie had dill'eient, views for
himself, however, and asked that he might
be permitted to go to West l'oiut to ttudy
for the army.
Mr. Hancock placed no obstacles in
the way of his sou. Ile was adliiilted to
West l'oiut, in IS 10. ile devoted him
self entirely to his bunks, and was thus
enabled to graduate after four years with a
lieutenant '.s cumuiis-ion. Ile returned to
hi- father's home, but he was uf a too ac
tive temperament to remain long inactive.
With a party of army men he started out
to explore llie great West. Their first
si 'pping place wa- St. Louis, where they
remained.
(leu. Hancock at the time made it a
practice ti take a ride on horseback every
morning.
While tiikiii!; his usual daily constitu
tional through the streets of St. Louis
arly one morning his attention was at
tracted by the sight of a handsome young
ady standing in the window ol one ol the
most fashionable houses iu the city. I'p
to this time he had remained heartwliole,
notwithstanding; that numerous young so
ciety ladies were only too eager to become
Mrs. Hancock. But the lovely counte
nance at the window gave liiiu his first
heart-flutter. Almost involuntarily he
slopped his charter and dulled his hat.
I he young lady blushed divinely, waved
one fair white band toward him in token
of farewell and then let the window cur
taini fall. He rode toward his hotel
blu-bing like a school boy, thrilled with a
new and sweet sensation. After returning
lo his hotel he became so abstracted as to
excite the att"iitiuii of his comrades. The
vision of a fair young girl standing at the
window kept continually iu bis mind, lie
could not resist the temptation to go again
and take a louk at the house where his
divinity lived. As he reached the place
she was just leaving the Inui-e on the
linn of a tall, handsome, gray-whiskered
gentleman. The young lady apparantly
re-rccognizeil him for rosy bln-hes cba-ed
one another in rapid suoeo: siou over her

in froiil of the hiaiv and was rapidly
