His excellency
Gov Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon. Sir:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Having just received through your hands an order from the Hon. Sec. of War, removing the disability resulting from my dismissal in Sept last, and thus leaving me again free to act.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I avail myself of this early opportunity to ask your Excellency's interposition in getting authority from the Secretary of War, to raise a command in this State for service in the field.  I have numerous offers of men, both Veterans mustered out of Service and Citizens who desire to go in a command under me.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can raise in a very short period of time a regiment of Soldiers who have served 3 years and over and by Connecting with them &lt;u&gt;citizens&lt;/u&gt; three or four Regiments.  As I have been unfortunate in getting wounded and in my dismissal I beg this privilege either for one of three years Service, believing that I can be of some use in the service in putting down this "unholy rebellion"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I pray your aid in getting me this permission.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am Gov Truly Your
Obt. Servt.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;G.A. Smith
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Decatur Sep 15 /64
G.A. Smith Col
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wants the Govr to interpose in getting authority from the Secty of War for him to raise a command for service in the State.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;File

Gov Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon. Sir:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Having just received through your hands an order from the Hon. Sec. of War, removing the disability resulting from my dismissal in Sept last, and thus leaving me again free to act.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I avail myself of this early opportunity to ask your Excellency's interposition in getting authority from the Secretary of War, to raise a command in this State for service in the field.  I have numerous offers of men, both Veterans mustered out of Service and Citizens who desire to go in a command under me.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can raise in a very short period of time a regiment of Soldiers who have served 3 years and over and by Connecting with them &lt;u&gt;citizens&lt;/u&gt; three or four Regiments.  As I have been unfortunate in getting wounded and in my dismissal I beg this privilege either for one of three years Service, believing that I can be of some use in the service in putting down this "unholy rebellion"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I pray your aid in getting me this permission.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am Gov Truly Your
Obt. Servt.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;G.A. Smith
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Decatur Sep 15 /64
G.A. Smith Col
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wants the Govr to interpose in getting authority from the Secty of War for him to raise a command for service in the State.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Four years ago, I wrote to you, requesting you to make an appointment at Toulon, in that memorable "Wide Awake" Campaign, and I promised you a tremendous crowd. - Gov came; and so did the people, and Little Mollie Stark rolled up at that time 505 majority for Lincoln, Yates and the entire ticket.- Another Election equal if not greater in importance is approaching, and we are still a doubtful district.-  Stark must once more overcome, Democratic Peoria's (which she failed to do last Nov) or unloose two Representatives and perhaps a U. S. senator.-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Can you meet the people of Stark - as early in the campaign as possible - and bring out such a crowd as no other man can. and help us secure two Representatives who will help to send you to the Senate in the place of another "Dick" who now disgraces our State by occupying a seat there.-  We have not heard from "Tom" since the Evacuation of Atlanta.- at last dates from him he was suffering with Diarrhea and was much reduced by it. but was trying to do his duty.-  Let me
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;hear from you as soon as convenient as to whether, and, when - you can be here.  When I will be glad to meet you.  if I am not in the mean time "grafted into the army"-

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Camp Near the mouth of White River
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respected Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would like to have some information as regards a soldiers time of servis. When the call that I came out in was for three years from the date of Aug but I was in Camp Butler three months before I was mustered in the servis. And it appears now that I have to stay three years from that muster so I am with some others a three year and three months Soldier there is no justice in this as some of our boys of Company C and B was mustered out of servis yesterday just because they were mustered on the 14th
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and enlisted on the tenth and I came to Camp Butler on the 4th of oct and drew pay from that date I should think that I ought to go out at that date, but all the justice a solder gets is not worth mentioning if you could have us mustered out sooner than the 30 of Dec I would like it very much for I should like to be at home at the coming Election. My vote would count - one hand I am thinking if the soldiers did not get to vote that the Copperheads will gain the day.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So [No Never?]
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But [remain?] yours 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respected
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thos Hays Co. F 46th Ill.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Says that he was mustered in 3 months after date of enlistment, and he finds he must serve 3 months more than time he enlisted for - wants to know about it.

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Sept 15 /'64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Camp Near the mouth of White River
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respected Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would like to have some information as regards a soldiers time of servis. When the call that I came out in was for three years from the date of Aug but I was in Camp Butler three months before I was mustered in the servis. And it appears now that I have to stay three years from that muster so I am with some others a three year and three months Soldier there is no justice in this as some of our boys of Company C and B was mustered out of servis yesterday just because they were mustered on the 14th
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and enlisted on the tenth and I came to Camp Butler on the 4th of oct and drew pay from that date I should think that I ought to go out at that date, but all the justice a solder gets is not worth mentioning if you could have us mustered out sooner than the 30 of Dec I would like it very much for I should like to be at home at the coming Election. My vote would count - one hand I am thinking if the soldiers did not get to vote that the Copperheads will gain the day.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So [No Never?]
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But [remain?] yours 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respected
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thos Hays Co. F 46th Ill.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hays Thos. Co "K" 46th Ill
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Near Mouth of White River, Sep 15/64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Says that he was mustered in 3 months after date of enlistment, and he finds he must serve 3 months more than time he enlisted for - wants to know about it.
