Head Quarters, Camp Koerner Otterville Mo. December 7 1861 Gov. Richard Yates Comd. in Chief U.S.M. Springfield Ill. Sir I understand that in accordance with a late Order from the U.S. War Department parts of Regiments & Companies are to be consolidating for the purpose of making these full [regiments?] at least to bring them up to the minimum standard - desiring my Regiment to fill up soon I would respectfully ask for your assistance - We number, all told, about 710 rank & file & need consequently about 1/2 Companies to bring us up to the minimum standard. If you are consolidating any of the Regts or Companies more at Camp Butler cannot you remember us and give us the requisite number to make us full? You know of what [metal?] my Regiment is composed, all Germans by birth with the exception of our Company of Swedes - can you give us some more of the same calibre. I should deem it an especial favour - I shall endeavor at all times to make my Regiment worthy of the confidence bestowed upon it - We have slept in arms for several nights back on account of the proximity of a rebel camp and their intention to drive the "dutch" from Holland, or rather from Otterville - We are prepared for a brush with them at any time and will give them a most warm reception should they not prefer to have these [illegible] again - We have [illegible] out of Price's quartermaster prisoners on yesterday and keep him in close confinement - our boys are doing well, very few of them in the ----- Hospital and only one of them has died since we left Camp Butler - he died of typhoid fever - Nothing more otherwise - Hoping to hear from you in a favorable reply. I remain, Governor, Your very obedient servant, Julius Raith, Col. 43rd Regt Ill. Vol. Cmdg Post. ----- Col. Julius Raith, File, Col. J.

Head Quarters, Camp Koerner Otterville Mo. December 7 1861 Gov. Richard Yates Comd. in Chief U.S.M. Springfield Ill. Sir I understand that in accordance with a late Order from the U.S. War Department parts of Regiments & Companies are to be consolidating for the purpose of making these full [regiments?] at least to bring them up to the minimum standard - desiring my Regiment to fill up soon I would respectfully ask for your assistance - We number, all told, about 710 rank & file & need consequently about 1/2 Companies to bring us up to the minimum standard. If you are consolidating any of the Regts or Companies more at Camp Butler cannot you remember us and give us the requisite number to make us full? You know of what [metal?] my Regiment is composed, all Germans by birth with the exception of our Company of Swedes - can you give us some more of the same calibre. I should deem it an especial favour - I shall endeavor at all times to make my Regiment worthy of the confidence bestowed upon it - We have slept in arms for several nights back on account of the proximity of a rebel camp and their intention to drive the "dutch" from Holland, or rather from Otterville - We are prepared for a brush with them at any time and will give them a most warm reception should they not prefer to have these [illegible] again - We have [illegible] out of Price's quartermaster prisoners on yesterday and keep him in close confinement - our boys are doing well, very few of them in the ----- Hospital and only one of them has died since we left Camp Butler - he died of typhoid fever - Nothing more otherwise - Hoping to hear from you in a favorable reply. I remain, Governor, Your very obedient servant, Julius Raith, Col. 43rd Regt Ill. Vol. Cmdg Post. ----- Col. Julius Raith, File, Col. J.

Head Qrs 38th Ills Vols Pilot Knob Mo Dec 7th 1861 Sir: Learning that there are numerous incomplete companies at Camp Butler, it would be of great advantage to this Regiment and perhaps to the public service if the deficient companies of the regiment could be filled by assigning the men of the former (with a Lieutenant) to this Regiment. I want 240 men to fill my Regiment. Six companies have less than the minimum prescribed by law.

Washington Dec. 7. 1861 Gov. Richard Yates. Sir, I this morning had a very satisfactory interview with Gen. McClelland in regard to the Lake defenses. I had already conferred with the President, the results of which I will communicate more at length, in a few days. Gen. McClelland, enquired how Illinois troops were armed & if we needed arms. I could only speak of those in Camp Douglas from personal knowledge. But he desired me to ask you to forward <hr /> through me a statement, Showing the wants of our troops, & how long since their organization, they had been destitute of arms, & he promised on its receipt to forward arms, & that Illinois should have her full share. They are arriving now, & I understand of excellent quality from [ahaad?]. Hoping to hear from you at an early day I am Very Truly Yours Isaac N. Arnold <hr /> Hon. I. N. Arnold Washington Dec 7 Lake defenses arms for our troops. Judge, I want a copy of the Report of Troops (which you have furnished) with the number of arms needed to send directly to McClelland got up in the best style. Also one for Arnold Indeed it would pay if a clerk were kept busy for 10 days in getting up copies like the original furnished to send 1 to Lincoln 1 to Cameron, 1 to Chase 1 to Bates & 1 to Blair. I believe I shall send the one I have to McClelland if you will send me the addendum of arms needed. To ascertain arms needed take the number of troops in camp - and state that when our agent Wolcott returns we will send him description of kind and quality of arms in the hands of soldiers in actual service.
