Temple went on to serve as editor of the Illinois Rural Electric News.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of people, places, and events in southern and central Illinois. Several photographs highlight life in Fairfield, Wayne City, and Mill Shoals including blood drives, holiday celebrations, and local school events.</text>

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Simon Cameron
Secr at War
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir: I have the honor to inform you that my first regiment of Sharpshooters is now full.  These companies have been sent forward temporarily for Picket Duty by order of Major General McClennan the remaining companies will be forwarded with Lieut. Col in a few days.  I have been ordered to remain in camp to organize my second regiment which I have good reason to believe will be full in two weeks, from this date.  So great is the desire on the part of the good rifle shots throughout the loyal States to join the service, provided they can be attached to my Corps, &amp;amp; so unwilling are they to enlist in any other
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am compelled from sense of duty – (notwithstanding my desire to go forward with my men at once) to ask that I may be ordered to muster all that I can yet during the next ninety days, who may be found on examination to be fully up to the requirements I have adopted for my Corps – to organize them into regiments and report to Major General McClennan when they are ready for the field.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor to remain with great respect  Your obt servt Signed H. Berdan  U.S. Sharpshooters
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Copy   War Department Oct. 3d 1861
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Colonel
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am in receipt of your communication of the 28th ultimo and cheerfully grant your application to be allowed to muster &amp;amp; organize into companies and regiments all the men that you can obtain during the next ninety days,  &amp;amp; who, on examination, may be found to be equal to the requirements you have adopted for your Corps.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectfully, Your Obt Servt, Signed Simon Cameron  Secr of War.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Simon Cameron
Secr at War
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir: I have the honor to inform you that my first regiment of Sharpshooters is now full.  These companies have been sent forward temporarily for Picket Duty by order of Major General McClennan the remaining companies will be forwarded with Lieut. Col in a few days.  I have been ordered to remain in camp to organize my second regiment which I have good reason to believe will be full in two weeks, from this date.  So great is the desire on the part of the good rifle shots throughout the loyal States to join the service, provided they can be attached to my Corps, &amp;amp; so unwilling are they to enlist in any other
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am compelled from sense of duty – (notwithstanding my desire to go forward with my men at once) to ask that I may be ordered to muster all that I can yet during the next ninety days, who may be found on examination to be fully up to the requirements I have adopted for my Corps – to organize them into regiments and report to Major General McClennan when they are ready for the field.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor to remain with great respect  Your obt servt Signed H. Berdan  U.S. Sharpshooters
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Copy   War Department Oct. 3d 1861
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Colonel
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am in receipt of your communication of the 28th ultimo and cheerfully grant your application to be allowed to muster &amp;amp; organize into companies and regiments all the men that you can obtain during the next ninety days,  &amp;amp; who, on examination, may be found to be equal to the requirements you have adopted for your Corps.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectfully, Your Obt Servt, Signed Simon Cameron  Secr of War.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I understand that the President has called for troops to be supplied from the different States and quite a number from Illinoise this being the case I presume you will appoint some recruiting officers to adopt some measures for obtaining Volunteers  if so I stand ready to assist for one in obtaining volunteers if I should be thought qualified for the business and am ready to commence immediately and do the best I can
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I suppose under existing circumstances there is no time be lost and it requires immediate action in us a &lt;u&gt;State&lt;/u&gt; especially that has given an honorable &lt;u&gt;President&lt;/u&gt; to the United States or as as we supposed when we elected A Lincoln for the White House
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now dear Sir if I can assist you in this way just drop me a line that I may arrange my business which will not take but one day for I look on the preservation of the Union as the first business and of the greatest importance of any worldly consideration
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours Verry Respectfuly

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I understand that the President has called for troops to be supplied from the different States and quite a number from Illinoise this being the case I presume you will appoint some recruiting officers to adopt some measures for obtaining Volunteers  if so I stand ready to assist for one in obtaining volunteers if I should be thought qualified for the business and am ready to commence immediately and do the best I can
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I suppose under existing circumstances there is no time be lost and it requires immediate action in us a &lt;u&gt;State&lt;/u&gt; especially that has given an honorable &lt;u&gt;President&lt;/u&gt; to the United States or as as we supposed when we elected A Lincoln for the White House
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now dear Sir if I can assist you in this way just drop me a line that I may arrange my business which will not take but one day for I look on the preservation of the Union as the first business and of the greatest importance of any worldly consideration
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours Verry Respectfuly

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I embrace the present opportunity to address to you a few lines in order to know if in your power I could not be transferred to my own State and from there receive a furlough home for a short time  I have been in the service two years and over and have never been at home since I enlisted  I received a wound through my left hip on the 10 of Sept. While in battle in front of Pietersburg and I do not expect to be able to do any duty for some time to come.  Most all the other States are transferring their troops to their own respective States and from there they receive a furlough home
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I would feel forever grateful to you if you could grant me this request hoping to have an amediate answer to this I will close. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor to be very respectfully your Obt" servt.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hiram Robinson

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;October the 16 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To your Excelency Gover. Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I embrace the present opportunity to address to you a few lines in order to know if in your power I could not be transferred to my own State and from there receive a furlough home for a short time  I have been in the service two years and over and have never been at home since I enlisted  I received a wound through my left hip on the 10 of Sept. While in battle in front of Pietersburg and I do not expect to be able to do any duty for some time to come.  Most all the other States are transferring their troops to their own respective States and from there they receive a furlough home
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I would feel forever grateful to you if you could grant me this request hoping to have an amediate answer to this I will close. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor to be very respectfully your Obt" servt.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hiram Robinson
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My address will be as follows
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hiram Robinson

                  <text>Scott Wike Lucas was an Illinois attorney and politician. Born in Cass County, Illinois, on February 19, 1892, Lucas attended public schools and Illinois Wesleyan University, where he played baseball and other college sports. While in college, during his summers, he played baseball in the Three-I League, a semiprofessional baseball league organized in Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa. After college, Lucas attended law school and was admitted to the bar in 1915. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lucas served in the United States Army during World War I, rising to the rank of lieutenant. He would later continue his military association by serving as commander of the Illinois Department of the American Legion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After serving as state's attorney for Mason County in the 1920s, Lucas ran in the 1932 Democratic primary as a candidate for the United States Senate from Illinois; however, he lost his primary bid to William H. Dieterich. Governor Henry Horner then appointed Lucas chairman of the State Tax Commission, which Lucas directed from 1933 to 1935. In 1934, Lucas won election to the United States House of Representatives from Illinois. Four years later, he won election to the U.S. Senate and was reelected in 1944. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Following President Harry S. Truman's reelection in 1948, Lucas became Senate Majority Leader. He served in that capacity only two years, losing the 1950 general election in Illinois to Republican Everett Dirksen. Lucas died on February 22, 1968. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Scott W. Lucas Collection consists of 38 photographs from Lucas' early life and political career. In addition to images of such influential American politicians as John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson, the collection contains several political cartoons satirizing Lucas and other politicians.</text>

Your's of the 14th was rec late last evening and I herewith transmit you the desired list of names. In regard to prominence, there is but little difference, but those in the first column are rather more active, in fact the workers.
I could increase the list but I am fearful it would be too burdensome for you. If I can at any time, or in any way assist you further have no hesitancy in commanding my services. I do hope that our next Congress will do something to remove the terrible state of affairs in the Southern States for I can only look with distrust and great fear upon the workings of Pres Johnson's restoration system. union men in this county are about discouraged and unanimously express the conviction that our only remedy for these dreadful evils, is to grant the full benefits of citizenship to all loyal men without distinction of color.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since my return from Springfield I find the people urging with great vehemence that you address us on the issues of the day at this place, and I have just written to Col Turner asking that he appoint a day as soon after Oct 6th as is convenient in which both your Honor and Genl Oglesby can be present and address.  I place the date after Oct 6th on a/c of our own and the State fairs.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your presence here or your absence will make a difference in our vote of over 500 and can you do more good in one day?  This will be the only Mass Meeting we shall need and will you not grant us this, which we consider a necessity?  May I hope that you will confer with Genl Oglesby and Col Turner and inform me of your decision at as early a date as possible, that full preparation may be made.  We are organizing for the campaign and mean to give a good report of ourselves.  Awaiting your reply I have the honor of remaining Your Obt Servt
