New York Sept 13. 1862 Honl Richd Yates Governor &C Springfield Ills Dear Sir When I last wrote you, I spoke of the intention of my wife to bring two Illinois Soldiers from Bedloe's Island to our House until they had entirely recovered. I regret to say, than on making the necessary application to Dr Slone the Medical Director, he peremptorily refused, but only on the ground that he was positively prohibited under the regulations of the War Department from doing so. One of them, a sergeant of the McClellan Dragoons is badly wounded through the foot, and it will be months before he is fit for service again even with the most skilful and carefuly nursing. It seems hard, that under the circumstances, he cannot be permitted to return home until he is fit for service. Yours Truly Geo M. Davis <hr /> Geo. M Davis New York Sept 13-62.

Enclosed, I send you some letters which will add more strength to the application you may make for me, than any other recommendation save your own. The letters designate the office of Capt A.Q.M., but I prefer the office created by the 5th Sec. of an Act for “Enrolling and Calling out the National forces &c.” namely: a “District Provost with the rank and pay of a Captain of Cavalry” to be appointed by the President. However, you can apply for whichever you think advisable. Mr Browning is not in Washington, I have therefore no letter to him, but the others will serve equally well. Please observe that unless you can from your own knowledge of my qualifications and desire for the successful issue of the application, press it with <hr /> earnestness and a good-will, I would rather you would make none. I appreciate the annoyance to which you are constantly subjected and I would, in no measure, add to them; but if, in following the bent of your inclination, you choose to do anything for me it will be gratefully acknowledged. Having no claims to assert, I shall not be offended at your silence in my behalf. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, George V. Rutherford <hr /> Geo. V. Rutherford, Quincy, March 5, '63. Encloses letter asking for appointment of Capt. A.Q.M.; but would prefer Provost Martial; does not wish the Gov'r to undertake it unless he finds himself at liberty to press it through.

Dear Sir: I have attended to the business part of your letter of the eighteenth, recd yesterday, and enclose the vouchers with letter of transmittal herewith. On the principle that the continuous falling of small drops wear away a rock, I am thumping away with my small mallet of influence and driving in a wedge here and there, where I know they will tell in your behalf. I do sincerely hope that your success does in no degree depend upon the elevation of J.K. Dubois to the Gubernatorial chain. He is no friend of yours, whatever he may pretend to be. You can sail without him I am sure. But, if the “Wires” are so arranged, that to pull against him, will unfavorably affect you, I may, though I can see no virtue in him, relax my grief enough to let him work out his own salvation with fear and trembling, if he is not entirely God-forsaken! My dislike for him is not personal, he has always treated me as well as <hr /> [illegible] nature and habits would permit, but it is, because I believe him void of principle. If he could be unfriendly to Gov. Wood, for whom he made such loud professions of friendship, he is capable of betraying you or any one else to enhance his own sinister purposes or for his own personal aggrandizement. Would like you to post me a little with regard to your relations to him in the coming contest. Of course you will be, beyond peradventure, the candidate for the Senate. I have never thought of anything else. You can have no successful opposition. Trumbull is ausgespielt; who else then, but the man who has done so much for the glory of Illinois, and, withal, made the Colonel that made the greatest General now living! Shall be our U.S. Senator! Pardon me for speaking so freely of yourself, but tis a Rutherford's claimed prerogative to “speak out in meeting” when ever the spirit moveth without barring the presence of any [illegible]. I'll tell you more particularly what I have been, and am still doing, when you come. Little though it may be, its all my might. <hr /> The redoutable Schermerhorn is here fixing up the State accounts, with some success I guess, I am doing all I can to help him. Gov. Wood was to have arrived here this week, but he has not yet appeared. With best respects, I am Governor, Very respectfully Your friend & obt. Servant Geo. V. Rutherford <hr /> Col.
