&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chicago -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reeds Temple of Music
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feb.20/64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To His Excellency,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Governor Yates,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of Illinois.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My dear friend,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did not receive your
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;letter inviting me to Springfield etc
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;until some ten more more days, after
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;date. I replied to it at once - 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and told you, that altho I had been
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sick for a month, I thought I should
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be strong enough to do myself the honor
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of becoming your guest, by Monday, or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tuesday next. Through Mr [name] - or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;some of his people - I have this moment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;received another letter from you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;extending your kind invitation.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the mean while, however, there
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;occurred a vacency in the Editorial
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Management of the Ch. Journal - and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;it has been finally arranged that
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall fill it - the stipulation being
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that I Enter upon my duties on Monday
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;next - 29th inst.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had many doubts in my mind
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;as to whether I could in honor, accept
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;this post, pending the negociations between
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;us. But the fact that my exchequer
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;is low - that I have had no employment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;for two months - that sickness has entailed
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2/
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a good deal of extra expense upon me
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;leaving me well nigh stranded, and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;at the mercy of a pitiless sea
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of troubles - weighed with me
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;so powerfully, that I felt it was my duty to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my family take the half loaf,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;better than no loaf!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In some respects, I am personally,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sorry, and in others glad, that this office
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has befallen me. Some how, or other,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"but wherefore, I know not", as Hamlet
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;says, I have a most sincere attachment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; friendship for you - not only as
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Yates - our Chief Magistrate - 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;but as Richard Yats, our Chief Man!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And if I could have been near you,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;during the next twelve months, I honestly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;think &amp;amp; believe, that I could have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;rendered you much good service. The more
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;so, because I should have worked cheerfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;for you, for love, and not for pay;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;nor would you ever have been wronged
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;or sold by me, as I fear you have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;been, by those whom, probably, you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;most confidently trusted. I am no
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;politician; and could never have become such,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;unless to serve some noble heart whom
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I loved; and for [them?], I must hide
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;myself in darkness, so that I might not appear
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in a habitat, which did not belong to 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my roots &amp;amp; nature.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But perhaps, in my own field
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of Enterprise - if, like most other things,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;it does not turn out an abortion, and leave
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;me in the cold - I may be able to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;help your work with my pen in any direction
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to which I may find you turning; and in
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3/
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that case, you may be sure, that the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;true fellow will be in your interests, whom
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;neither money, nor office, "nor any other
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;creature," could buy from him allegiance.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, my dear friend, I hope you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will not think that I have done wrong
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in closing so suddenly, with the Journal
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;folks, when I was more than half in
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your hands already. But did you ever
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;know what it was to be troubled
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;with the disease of impecuniosity?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dost thou know the value of a dollar?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- the sweetness of hard earned bread,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;when a man is hungry, and when the sweat
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of a days work hardly gave me Enough to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;eat? If I perceive any thing like this
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has been [illegible] - thou wilt not marvel
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that a man who had nothing to do
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and whose private fortune on which to live - enough
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in England - is but the half of the wages
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of an American Mechanic - should seize
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;upon the first honorable employment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;which might chance to offer.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate I will sincerely ask you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to forgive me, if in my eagerness to earn
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my salt, I have in any way, thwarted
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your designs - which I heartily hope I have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;not. And indeed, if after sufficient
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;trial I find this Journal is not
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my true El Dorado in the West; and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you have any post for me, where I can
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be with you, and genuinely serve you, I
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;should like that better than any thing else;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and I beseech you, if you care for true
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;service, and not for lip service, to bethink
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you whether some such arrangement could not
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be finally effected between us. Don't think
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4/ Me conceited, or forward, my  dear
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;friend, in making this suggestion. It is some
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of your own so called friends who have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;pricked me to it, by their falsehood
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and double dealing in respect to you.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate, and under any
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;circumstances, I am yours devoutly.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As to the biography, if you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will be so good as furnish me with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the papers, and get them properly headed,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;dated, and numbered as to the pages
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will, as soon as possible, work them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;up into form, and make of them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a personal record, which can hardly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;fail to catch the ears &amp;amp; hearts of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your constituents, and of those who love
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you in the West and East. I cannot
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;now come to Springfield on Monday
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;because I must begin with the Journal
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;on that day; nor am I strong enough
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to venture upon so long a journey, without taking
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a day or two's rest between going 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; returning. These days I cannot now
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;spare - and yet I ought to see you for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a few hours. Could you not arrange this
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- that is, if your anticipated journey 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;should bring you to Chicago?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall want all the Speeches,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Essays, Lectures etc. along with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;any State papers by you - which you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;may think it wise &amp;amp; proper to publish.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And a short note should be appended
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to each speech, lecture, Essay &amp;amp; political
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;paper, giving the dates of delivery, and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the history of the occasion.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All this will be absolutely necessary;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5/ And it shall go hard, but I will
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;produce a book not unworthy of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;our beloved Governor.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please write me - if only one line -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in reply. Set my mind at ease as to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;what I have done in the Journal matter
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- and if you think I have not acted
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(considering what you proposed to obtain for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;me) as I ought to have done - point out
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the remedy and I will right the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;unwitting wrong.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am always yours, most truly,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Geo. S. Phillips

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chicago -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reeds Temple of Music
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feb.20/64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To His Excellency,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Governor Yates,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of Illinois.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My dear friend,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did not receive your
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;letter inviting me to Springfield etc
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;until some ten more more days, after
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;date. I replied to it at once - 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and told you, that altho I had been
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sick for a month, I thought I should
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be strong enough to do myself the honor
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of becoming your guest, by Monday, or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tuesday next. Through Mr [name] - or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;some of his people - I have this moment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;received another letter from you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;extending your kind invitation.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the mean while, however, there
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;occurred a vacency in the Editorial
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Management of the Ch. Journal - and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;it has been finally arranged that
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall fill it - the stipulation being
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that I Enter upon my duties on Monday
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;next - 29th inst.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had many doubts in my mind
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;as to whether I could in honor, accept
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;this post, pending the negociations between
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;us. But the fact that my exchequer
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;is low - that I have had no employment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;for two months - that sickness has entailed
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2/
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a good deal of extra expense upon me
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;leaving me well nigh stranded, and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;at the mercy of a pitiless sea
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of troubles - weighed with me
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;so powerfully, that I felt it was my duty to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my family take the half loaf,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;better than no loaf!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In some respects, I am personally,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sorry, and in others glad, that this office
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has befallen me. Some how, or other,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"but wherefore, I know not", as Hamlet
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;says, I have a most sincere attachment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; friendship for you - not only as
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Yates - our Chief Magistrate - 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;but as Richard Yats, our Chief Man!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And if I could have been near you,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;during the next twelve months, I honestly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;think &amp;amp; believe, that I could have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;rendered you much good service. The more
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;so, because I should have worked cheerfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;for you, for love, and not for pay;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;nor would you ever have been wronged
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;or sold by me, as I fear you have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;been, by those whom, probably, you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;most confidently trusted. I am no
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;politician; and could never have become such,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;unless to serve some noble heart whom
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I loved; and for [them?], I must hide
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;myself in darkness, so that I might not appear
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in a habitat, which did not belong to 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my roots &amp;amp; nature.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But perhaps, in my own field
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of Enterprise - if, like most other things,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;it does not turn out an abortion, and leave
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;me in the cold - I may be able to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;help your work with my pen in any direction
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to which I may find you turning; and in
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3/
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that case, you may be sure, that the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;true fellow will be in your interests, whom
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;neither money, nor office, "nor any other
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;creature," could buy from him allegiance.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, my dear friend, I hope you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will not think that I have done wrong
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in closing so suddenly, with the Journal
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;folks, when I was more than half in
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your hands already. But did you ever
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;know what it was to be troubled
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;with the disease of impecuniosity?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dost thou know the value of a dollar?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- the sweetness of hard earned bread,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;when a man is hungry, and when the sweat
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of a days work hardly gave me Enough to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;eat? If I perceive any thing like this
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has been [illegible] - thou wilt not marvel
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that a man who had nothing to do
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and whose private fortune on which to live - enough
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in England - is but the half of the wages
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of an American Mechanic - should seize
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;upon the first honorable employment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;which might chance to offer.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate I will sincerely ask you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to forgive me, if in my eagerness to earn
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my salt, I have in any way, thwarted
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your designs - which I heartily hope I have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;not. And indeed, if after sufficient
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;trial I find this Journal is not
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my true El Dorado in the West; and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you have any post for me, where I can
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be with you, and genuinely serve you, I
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;should like that better than any thing else;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and I beseech you, if you care for true
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;service, and not for lip service, to bethink
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you whether some such arrangement could not
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be finally effected between us. Don't think
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4/ Me conceited, or forward, my  dear
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;friend, in making this suggestion. It is some
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;of your own so called friends who have
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;pricked me to it, by their falsehood
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and double dealing in respect to you.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate, and under any
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;circumstances, I am yours devoutly.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As to the biography, if you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will be so good as furnish me with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the papers, and get them properly headed,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;dated, and numbered as to the pages
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will, as soon as possible, work them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;up into form, and make of them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a personal record, which can hardly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;fail to catch the ears &amp;amp; hearts of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your constituents, and of those who love
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you in the West and East. I cannot
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;now come to Springfield on Monday
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;because I must begin with the Journal
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;on that day; nor am I strong enough
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to venture upon so long a journey, without taking
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a day or two's rest between going 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; returning. These days I cannot now
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;spare - and yet I ought to see you for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;a few hours. Could you not arrange this
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- that is, if your anticipated journey 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;should bring you to Chicago?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall want all the Speeches,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Essays, Lectures etc. along with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;any State papers by you - which you
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;may think it wise &amp;amp; proper to publish.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And a short note should be appended
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to each speech, lecture, Essay &amp;amp; political
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;paper, giving the dates of delivery, and
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the history of the occasion.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All this will be absolutely necessary;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5/ And it shall go hard, but I will
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;produce a book not unworthy of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;our beloved Governor.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please write me - if only one line -
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in reply. Set my mind at ease as to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;what I have done in the Journal matter
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- and if you think I have not acted
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(considering what you proposed to obtain for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;me) as I ought to have done - point out
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the remedy and I will right the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;unwitting wrong.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am always yours, most truly,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Geo. S. Phillips

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov. Yates:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dear Sir, Your kind letter gave me a great deal of pleasure, and its suggestions in regard to preparing myself for the approaching canvass I am already acting upon. I shall be ready to enter the field whenever my friends think it best.  Meantime, I am not idle.  Quietly I am pushing my claims to a seat in the Senate, and at present have no doubt but I will succeed.  I addressed, in company with Senator Ward, a large and spirited meeting in one of my country towns on Monday.  I do not pledge myself to any one for Congress;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but I may say to you that Ward's chances appear to be good.  Arnold or Wentworth or Scripps -- I pray not Wentworth -- may beat him; but it don't look that way now.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your prospects I know are good.  They are as good, certainly, as those of the Union party.  And it does not seem to be doubted by our friends, so far as I know, that we will carry the State.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your late splendid proclamation is having and will continue to have an inspiriting effect.  It is motiveal for many stump speeches.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Allow me to say to you (all in private!) that you have a most rare and happy faculty of doing exactly the right thing at precisely the right time.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some allusion you made in your letter I do not quite understand, but you will make it all clear when you come.  When are you coming?  There is talk of inviting you here to make a speech before the Union Club.  It has a new set of officers, but they are our friends.  They are negotiating for a  suitable hall, and I do not know when they will be ready to open.  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My wife desires one to thank you for your picture; it is capital.  We are sorry we cannot send you ours for your daughter -- we have none at present.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very truly yours, 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Francis A. Eastman
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov. Yates:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dear Sir, Your kind letter gave me a great deal of pleasure, and its suggestions in regard to preparing myself for the approaching canvass I am already acting upon. I shall be ready to enter the field whenever my friends think it best.  Meantime, I am not idle.  Quietly I am pushing my claims to a seat in the Senate, and at present have no doubt but I will succeed.  I addressed, in company with Senator Ward, a large and spirited meeting in one of my country towns on Monday.  I do not pledge myself to any one for Congress;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but I may say to you that Ward's chances appear to be good.  Arnold or Wentworth or Scripps -- I pray not Wentworth -- may beat him; but it don't look that way now.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your prospects I know are good.  They are as good, certainly, as those of the Union party.  And it does not seem to be doubted by our friends, so far as I know, that we will carry the State.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your late splendid proclamation is having and will continue to have an inspiriting effect.  It is motiveal for many stump speeches.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Allow me to say to you (all in private!) that you have a most rare and happy faculty of doing exactly the right thing at precisely the right time.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some allusion you made in your letter I do not quite understand, but you will make it all clear when you come.  When are you coming?  There is talk of inviting you here to make a speech before the Union Club.  It has a new set of officers, but they are our friends.  They are negotiating for a  suitable hall, and I do not know when they will be ready to open.  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My wife desires one to thank you for your picture; it is capital.  We are sorry we cannot send you ours for your daughter -- we have none at present.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very truly yours, 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Francis A. Eastman
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Private
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eastman F. A.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chicago Feby 25 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Has received Governors letter will be ready for the field whenever his friends think best.  He is not idle and is pushing his claims for a seat on the Senate.  &amp;amp;c &amp;amp;c

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Honorable Sir.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I take present opportunity of writing to you the circumstances which has happened since my husband return home from the army on a furlow of 30 day; When he first came home; he was very kink to me.  But by persusuion of his folks we think so; by circumstances that which sins happened, and by their own talk; They commenced their scandilizing talk to him about me; saying they could not bemean me enough; his father telling him to get a bill from me, and take my darling children from my bosom.  My little daughter which is almost twelve year old.  She listened to this cruel talk, till it 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;seemed that her heart would brake in pieces at the thoughts of being torn from her dear mother.  With bitter anguish she came to me; to relate her sad story; she was so overcome with grief mingled with fear;  All she could say was placing her delicate arms around my neck; eyes filled with tears; and with great emotion that would melt a mountain of stone; saying  mother would to God; that I had died before I had seen such troubles as this.  I want God to kill me:  O!Mother I want to die!  Mother I want to tell you; but I cant; I am afraid too.  with such expressions ringing her with bitter anguish at the same time;  After Mrs Weeds and my own persuasion to 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;relate the sad story to us.  Trying to choke down her tears;  She said: those cruel folks are setting Pa! against you telling him storys on you; and making all sorts of fun of you; and saying nothing was to bad for you; and grandpas telling him to get bill from you telling him he he was a fool for ever living with you again, saying he would help him if he would do so and urging him on;  My feeling better imaging than described.  What monster of the deep&amp;#160;; would come to crush down the inocent; and crush a helpless woman, not only my children torn from my bosom; but turned out helpless into the world without a red cent; saying I never should see my darling children again while innocence dwells in my

&lt;p&gt;bosom I have lived here five years; Individuals of good standing in this place will test this scene; and my innocence by signing their name to this Say farther that my husband had nothing when I married him he got a handsome fortune and money with me;  I feel it very hard to be treated so harshly without mercy shown,  If you could lend me a helping hand to assist me in getting my children and drawing some of his money for my support.  I have worked very hard and done more for my children then he has; this my neighbors will certify too;  if you can do nothing more than to write a good feeling letter to him it may influence him to sence or feeling.  Please answer this if

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Commissioners Office
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Joliet, July 23 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Governor,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I several Days ago received a letter from you, requesting the names of prominent Union men in my own and neighboring counties. And supposing the use you wished to make of them having taken more time in getting full lists.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Believing that what is worth doing at all, should be well done.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I therefore send you pretty full lists of  Kane &amp;amp; Will and partial lists of Dupage, Kendall &amp;amp; DeKalb.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I see from the paper of today that you were at Quincy yesterday, 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope &amp;amp; trust you had a good time, and I think that Adams county wants the pure gospel preached to them, and I trust you may have reached the consciences of some.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Truly Yours &amp;amp;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ira M. Buck.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Governor,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I several Days ago received a letter from you, requesting the names of prominent Union men in my own and neighboring counties. And supposing the use you wished to make of them having taken more time in getting full lists.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Believing that what is worth doing at all, should be well done.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I therefore send you pretty full lists of  Kane &amp;amp; Will and partial lists of Dupage, Kendall &amp;amp; DeKalb.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I see from the paper of today that you were at Quincy yesterday, 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope &amp;amp; trust you had a good time, and I think that Adams county wants the pure gospel preached to them, and I trust you may have reached the consciences of some.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Truly Yours &amp;amp;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ira M. Buck.

Feb 28th 1864
Hon Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Permit me to address you to [find time?] relations to my affairs as I wish something done [about?] it soon.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was on the 12th day of July last Arrested at Fort Pickering Tennessee while on duty at this place by a Complaint made to the Provost Marshall  of Lee Cot of this state by the influence of a Copperhead and have been held under arrest up to the present time.  While at Tennessee I applied several times for a trial or release but did not get either. Genl Hurthers Promises me a hearing immediately the first of September but he let my case go by unnoticed.  I applied some Six times while there for a hearing or on release and promised a hearing but was neglected and in Nov. I applied again saying I would have to apply to the war department if I did not have something done about my case and then He ordered me to Springfield for a trial and  here I have again tried to have something done in my case but as yet to no avail.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have all the witnesses and papers to clear me from the charges that I raise also living withnisses as to my Character Prior and Since the charges has been prefered against me.  Immediate references Lieut Col Geo. Clark Comm Camp Butler also Dr [Winkeace?] Surgeon in Charge Genl Hospital
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wish you to Confer a favor by either assisting me for a hearing or release.  I do not have any choice which only the one that will give me my liberty with the most possible speed.  I think I have been  held long enough by a Copperhead to demand a trial.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have always been truly loyal to the Government and also to the Administration but I am not willing to be held under arrest for nothing.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You will Confirm a favor by instructing me or assisting me to have my Case disposed off some way
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His Excellency Richard Yates

Hon Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Permit me to address you a fine line relative to my affairs as I wish something done with it soon.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was on the 12th day of July last Arrested at Fort Pickering Tennessee while on duty at this place by a Complaint made to the Provost Marshall  of Lee Co. of this state by the influence of a Copperhead and have been held under arrest up to the present time.  While at Tennessee I applied several times for a trial or release but did not get either. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genl Hurthers Promises me a hearing immediately the first of 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;September but he let my case go by unnoticed.  I applied some Six times while there for a hearing or release and promised a hearing but neglected and in Nov. I applied again saying I would have to apply to the war department if I did not have something done about my case and then He ordered me sent to Springfield for a trial and here I have again tried to have something done in my case but as yet to no avail.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have all the witnesses and papers to clear me from the charges that I wish also living witnesses as to my Character Prior and Since the charges has been prefered against me.  Immediate references Lieut Col Geo. Clark Comm Camp Butler also Dr. Winkeall Surgeon in Charge Genl Hospital
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wish you to Confer a favor by either assisting me for a hearing or release.  I do not have any choice which only the one that will give me my liberty with the most possible speed.  I think I have been  held long enough by a Copperhead to demand a trial.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have always been truly loyal to the Government and also to the Administration but I am not willing to be held under arrest for nothing.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You will Confer a favor by instructing me or assisting me to have my Case disposed off some way
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His Excellency Richard Yates
