Dear Sir
Mr. O.S. Canby, who will hand you this is a private in Capt Churchill's Company, from this Co, and is one above all others that worked hard at Camp Anna to get our boys to remain, and has since his return done every thing he could to get up the present Company, he is a young man of considerable ability – combined with great energy – And I think he ought to have some appointment in the Regiment to which the company may be placed, and if you can give him any assistance I hope you will do so.
Yours truly
W. L. Mayo
