For four year before Lincoln was made president the colored man was his family servant. After the election an even of Lincoln's thousand neighbors signed a petition asking that Shavers be appointed his bodyguard and Lincoln complied. When the war broke out Lincoln feared for the man's safety and would not permit him to continue as his guard. Shavers asked for an appointment to one of the colored regiments being formed for the war and his appointment to the recruiting ofticership of the colored regi ments of Indiana resulted.
