You know what you need but you still have to visit a doctor! You can thank, or not, Eli Lilly a Union officer from the Civil War. Lilly, born in Baltimore, Maryland, grew up mostly in Indiana. He was always interested in chemistry as a boy and became an apprentice in a drugstore in Lafayette, Indiana in 1854. He loved it! By 1861 he was married, had a son, and was the owner of his own drugstore in Greencastle, Indiana. When the Civil War began, he enlisted in the US army and was soon an officer recruiting for the formation of an artillery unit. The 18th Indiana Artillery, known as Lilly’s Battery, made their initial baptism into combat in Kentucky and Tennessee in 1862. Soon attached to Wilder’s Lightening Mounted Infantry Brigade, Lilly and his men became some of the very best cannoneers in the Army of the Tennessee. By 1864, Eli had decided he needed a change and joined the 9th Indiana Cavalry. Quickly however, he was captured in Alabama, by Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Shipped to Mississippi he finished the Civil War as a POW. Eli Lilly during the Civil War He liked the climate and opportunities Mississippi might afford a young entrepreneur, so after the War he relocated to the state to become a farmer. It was a disaster.
