Cairo Ill. Sept. 22d 1861 His Excellency Richd Yates Govr &c Sir: Col. Buford will hand you this hasty note. He visits Springfield, at my request upon a matter of vital importance to my command. You are advised of the circumstances under which my Brigade left Jacksonville for this place. I will not enlarge upon or emphasize the inconvenience and disappointment of expectations which have followed. Col. B will, if necessary, explain these. We are now here, the main and almost the exclusive reliance for the defense of this place, which is beleaguered by near enemies on three sides, and we are virtually without arms, and do not know when we will be supplied with such as are worthy of the name. I make no merit of the sacrifices I have <hr /> made in entering the military service. Duty required it and that is enough; but in entering the service I expected to be enabled to make my service valuable to my country and honorable to my state, and those who have cast their lots with me in the field of danger. I cannot do it without I am armed. My reliance, as you know, has been largely upon you, whom I have cordially and uniformly sustained in the discharge of your responsible duties from the first. I still rely upon you and with a confidence that all just expectations will be realized. Send me arms. Send me four thousand stands of the Eufield rifle, which I understand have been or will be sent to you. It may be that I have some claim upon these same arms as I was, probably, instrumental, directly or indirectly, in causing them to be sent. Send me arms and come down and see us, and we will give you a hearty reception. I have labored incessantly since I have been here, but all this will be more than compensated if you will send me arms with –--- which I shall be enabled to realize whatever of favorable expectations may be entertained by sympathizing friends.

State of Illinois Executive Department. Springfield Sept 23 1861 Dear Governor Your letter has been received and should have been answered a day or two ago. I saw while in St Louis, (for I was waited on by several leading men), that what you say is true, that there was a conspiracy to break down Genl Fremont, and I concur with you that it would be "disastrous to an alarming extent." I believe it would bring about a revolution and the consequences would be direful and disastrous. Now, Governor, I know one thing certain, and that is the hearts of the soldiers and the people are with Fremont. I have taken occasion to converse with several officers and with the people from different parts of thi State and they would not willingly <hr /> submit to the displacement of Fremont. Many things are at the bottom of this move - ambition, jealousy, money. Sharpers from Washington to Chicago & St Louis after fat contracts - seekers after place - and even the Presidential succession are at the bottom - for Governor, it is certain that the man be he McClelland or Fremont, or whoever he may be, who shall achieve the most brilliant victories during the present war and who shall impress himself upon the people as the master spirit of the [illegible] will be the next President. and they the wise ones at Washington & elsewhere see it. I feel warmly attached to Fremont, and could I have his ear I would try to impress him with one view, and that is to concentrate all his troops into one grand army, with but few detachments.
