Chicago, Ills, September 19 1864 Sir, Letters were received on Saturday, stating that General Meredith, who has succeeded Gen. Paine at Paducah, Kenty,- in a speech delivered by him before the 134th Regt of Ills Volunteers (100 day men) now at Mayfield, Kenty, said "We should Keep that Regiment there to level the present Forts, build new ones, and teach them Discipline" Several of the Parents & Friends of the young men (some of whom are minors) have call'd on me, and requested I would write to you stating facts- If their Col: (McChesney) now reported to be under arrest, has committed himself, the Regiment ought not to suffer for obeying orders, or his misconduct. They are volunteers, enlisted out of pure Patriotism, and their Time was out about the 4th Instant They wish to come Home and be muster'd out of the Service. A great portion of the men intend to Reinlist and receive the Bounty, but if they are badly & unjustly treated, they will undoubtedly change their mind,- The Regiment is now placed in a peculiarly antagonistic position with the Sesesh & Rebels, in consequence of the severe measures adopted by General Paine & carried out by them, as ordered. I therefore address your Excellency and urge your interposition at Head Quarters to the effect that the 134th Regt of Ills Vols be immediately sent home and muster'd out of the Service Apologizing for thus intruding on your time, and requesting your immediate attention to the matter. I have the honor to be Sir Your obt.

Chicago, Ills, September 19 1864 Sir, Letters were received on Saturday, stating that General Meredith, who has succeeded Gen. Paine at Paducah, Kenty,- in a speech delivered by him before the 134th Regt of Ills Volunteers (100 day men) now at Mayfield, Kenty, said "We should Keep that Regiment there to level the present Forts, build new ones, and teach them Discipline" Several of the Parents & Friends of the young men (some of whom are minors) have call'd on me, and requested I would write to you stating facts- If their Col: (McChesney) now reported to be under arrest, has committed himself, the Regiment ought not to suffer for obeying orders, or his misconduct. They are volunteers, enlisted out of pure Patriotism, and their Time was out about the 4th Instant They wish to come Home and be muster'd out of the Service. A great portion of the men intend to Reinlist and receive the Bounty, but if they are badly & unjustly treated, they will undoubtedly change their mind,- The Regiment is now placed in a peculiarly antagonistic position with the Sesesh & Rebels, in consequence of the severe measures adopted by General Paine & carried out by them, as ordered. I therefore address your Excellency and urge your interposition at Head Quarters to the effect that the 134th Regt of Ills Vols be immediately sent home and muster'd out of the Service Apologizing for thus intruding on your time, and requesting your immediate attention to the matter. I have the honor to be Sir Your obt.

They were mustered into the 134th Regit, and are now at Maysfield, K.y. Their time is out, and yet the Satrap who rules in the place of that faithful officer, Gen Payne, refuses to dismiss them, and has set them at work on the fortifications, in the place of the citizens, whom he dismissed, and said he “would let them know the soldiers place,”— and would keep them as long as “he pleased,” and the like. Several of the boys are sick, and the last letter home my son bro,t the news that he was unfit for duty—that he had kept at his post as long as he could. <pre> I ask your Excellency, is there no redress, from </pre> such upstart tyranny! They call Pres. Lincoln, a tyrant, but if he approached within a thousand miles of such tyran ny, there might be some justice in the accusation. <pre> Can your Excellency do any thing to redress this [out </pre> -rage?]? If so I trust that you will attend to it without delay. <pre> Very truly yours </pre> <pre> Geo. Heedham </pre> —— This needs response and attention Buckley P.O. Iroquois Co. Sept 20. 1864 Geo. Heedham His son and several [other?] young men in that county who were students of a literary institution. dropped their books and responded to the call for 100 Days men. There time has expired and they are still kept to work on fortifications. Can they not be discharged?
