Aurora Kane Co Ill Sept 21st 1864 Hon Richard Yates Dr Sir Some time since I wrote to you in regard to the transfer of one Andrew Golden, corporal in Co E 89th Regt Ill Vol. from the Hospital at Nashville to the Hospital in Chicago. Your reply of the 30th of August said that you had "written to the U. S. Medical Director at Nashville Tenn requesting that an order issue directing Andrew Golden to report to U. S. Hospital Chicago Ill" The Soldier reported at Chicago but would not be received because he had no transfer, As soon as he can get that he will be allowed to report at the above place. I wish you would have the kindness to reply as soon as possible stating what action if any has been taken in the matter. If there is any thing further that can be done to effect this transfer I hope you will aid me. The Soldier is unable to travel such a long distance, He is home and friends are here & it would be much better for him & better for the Governance if he could be allowed to remain near here until he recovers.
