State of Illinois Executive Department. Springfield September 30th 1861 Dear Governor, I enclose you herewith Shobers Bill for Printing (receipted) although it has not yet been paid. I wish it might be paid without delay as half of it was due in July. I staid in St Louis longer than I expected, being very busy all the time chasing after one thing and another (No women included) but I did not succeed in accomplishing anything satisfactory. I found the City filled with contractors and jobbers. A great deal of flurry in the Quartermasters Deptmt, but on every side I heard complaints of the insufficiency of the supplies. <hr /> It is said that Fremont has no credit - and hence this want of equipments. Certainly the US have money. Why is it not used? I saw the remnant of Mulligans Brigade when they arrived at St Louis. It was indeed a sorry sight, but they hardly looke worse than other soldiers at Benton Barracks, who have seen no service. Capt Weides Cavalry Co from Chicago was ordered into service and I saw them leave the Barracks for the enemy's country last Friday with only four sabres, the private property of the officers. Only thirty of the men were clothed thoroughly, while many had not wherewithal to cover their nakedness, and so I might go on telling what I have seen, Sights which filled me with grief and shame. Our Western troops have been sent into <hr /> the field, with few exceptions, poorly clothed and armed, many without any arms at all. I hope you will try and wake up the powers at Washington to a sense of their duty. It is hardly possible to exagerate the miserable condition of our men. The Irish Brigade has now been in service three months and have not received one cents pay. For God's sake let us have something done. Upon arriving at the office to day I find that Judge Fuller is playing Governor, I have no doubt that he will do it [brown?], but he is very much impressed with the idea of magnifying his office, and one would think that he was four Governors rolled into one. Hoping soon to see you with <hr /> the objects of your journey accomplished and your health restored, I remain Very truly Your Friend S. M. Willson. S. M. Wilson.

Indianapolis Ind. Sep. 30th 1861. His Excellency Gov. Yates, Sir, Having understood that a Rejiment in your State is without a commanding offiicer, I take this opportunity of applying for the situation. Served five years in the Regular Army - from 1853 to 1858 - as 1st Sergeant, 1st Lieutenant, and finally Capt. of Lt. Art. Since this war began have enlisted eleven Companies (1650 men) of Light Artillery. Took command of the first Company as Captain. Resigned that command in order to accept from the War Department, authority to enlist and organize a Rejiment of Light Artillery. Have enlisted and organized the Rejiment, and taken it to Gen Fremont. Have passed an xamination before a board of West Point Officers at St. Louis, and been recommended by them to the same position I had already been elected to - Col of Light Artilly. Acting Brig. Gen. Tatter was chief examiner, and I refer you to him. But Gen. Fremont has finally concluded not to entertain any <hr /> rejimental organization - as such, but wishes each Battery to be an independent command, and at all times ready for detatched service. While therefore he accepts the companies, he has no use for an Ast. Col. Can bring the best of refrences as regards capacity, as well as moral character and good habits. What can you do for me? What can I do for you? Shall be in Cincinnati for a week or two. You can direct to that place. Respectfully, W. G.
