&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cairo, Ill., June 25th 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Yates
When in Springfield I had intended seeing you relative to a friend of mine Dr H H Davis formerly Surgeon of 18h Ill Vol &amp;amp; lately mustered out= term having expired. I understand the Dr has received the appointment of Asst Surgeon in the Regular army and he desires to be placed in Some easy place where he will have less work to do than has been his fortune for the last 3 years.  Now in his behalf let me say that I know him, I knew him when he was a private in 8” Ills vols (I think it was) helped him get his comsn as Surgeon. Was with him through [6?] battles &amp;amp; 18” months hard service. He has been always a hard working man.  Always in the field. And always at his post of duty.  If any man deserves an easy place he does, &amp;amp; if such a place at a post in Hospital
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some where in Illinois can be given him I am sure it will be a well merited act for an efficient &amp;amp; laborious surgeon.  Besides if he is compelled now to go into the field as asst surgeon, many men of less ability &amp;amp; of less Services &amp;amp; experience will take rank over him who heretofore were under him, you know how this makes a man of his sensibilities feel.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am very truly Yours &amp;amp;c
I N Haynie
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Col L.  Prepare proper applications for Doct Davis  &amp;amp; inform the General
&lt;/p&gt;

Cairo, Ills.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recommends Dr H H Davis, formerly surg of 18th Ills Vols. Since appd asst Surg in Reg Army, for some post where he will have less labour, than has been his lot hitherto.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov's remark within
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Letter to Secretary of War July 18' 64.  strongly recommending Dr Davis for Surgeon of Vols.  Copy sent to Dr Davis Paris Ills. July 19 64.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Yates
When in Springfield I had intended seeing you relative to a friend of mine Dr H H Davis formerly Surgeon of 18h Ill Vol &amp;amp; lately mustered out= term having expired. I understand the Dr has received the appointment of Asst Surgeon in the Regular army and he desires to be placed in Some easy place where he will have less work to do than has been his fortune for the last 3 years.  Now in his behalf let me say that I know him, I knew him when he was a private in 8” Ills vols (I think it was) helped him get his comsn as Surgeon. Was with him through [6?] battles &amp;amp; 18” months hard service. He has been always a hard working man.  Always in the field. And always at his post of duty.  If any man deserves an easy place he does, &amp;amp; if such a place at a post in Hospital
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some where in Illinois can be given him I am sure it will be a well merited act for an efficient &amp;amp; laborious surgeon.  Besides if he is compelled now to go into the field as asst surgeon, many men of less ability &amp;amp; of less Services &amp;amp; experience will take rank over him who heretofore were under him, you know how this makes a man of his sensibilities feel.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am very truly Yours &amp;amp;c
I N Haynie
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Col L.  Prepare proper applications for Doct Davis  &amp;amp; inform the General

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recommends Dr H H Davis, formerly surg of 18th Ills Vols. Since appd asst Surg in Reg Army, for some post where he will have less labour, than has been his lot hitherto.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov's remark within
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Letter to Secretary of War July 18' 64.  strongly recommending Dr Davis for Surgeon of Vols.  Copy sent to Dr Davis Paris Ills. July 19 64.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cairo, Ill., Sept 21st 1864
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov Yates,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Several days since in speaking of my future desires to several of my friends here - I mentioned that it was my intention to spend the winter at Mobile in case of its capture &amp;amp; occupation by our forces.  It was at once suggested to me that I could get the appointment of "Supervising Special Agent" at that place if I would make the effort.  I am this morning informed that there are others applying for it.  If you are not committed in favor of some one - and should deem me worthy of the trust I should be glad to have your aid in the matter.  If however there be the smallest object in he way of your aid - I hope you will candidly inform me.  I trust to see if you soon
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Verry truly
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I N Haynie
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Haynie I. N.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cairo Sept. 21/64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wants appt of supervisory special agent at Mobile
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Write strong rec - &amp;amp; enclose to him - immediately - make strong
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sept 30 - 64
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sent letter recommd'g to President

&lt;p&gt;Gov Yates,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Several days since in speaking of my future desires to several of my friends here - I mentioned that it was my intention to spend the winter at Mobile in case of its capture &amp;amp; occupation by our forces. It was at once suggested to me that I could get the appointment of "Supervising Special Agent" at that place if I would make the effort. I am this morning informed that there are others applying for it. If you are not committed in favor of some one - and should deem me worthy of the trust I should be glad to have your aid in the matter. If however there be the smallest object in he way of your aid - I hope you will candidly inform me. I trust to see if you soon&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Verry truly&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

As I came by Centralia &amp;amp; Du Quoin I found that both places had Extensively advertised Genl Logon &amp;amp; Genl Oglesby for the 12th (visit?) &amp;amp; neither would give up - So that both meetings will go on.  I suggested that one of them might go to each - &amp;amp; that I would attend with one &amp;amp; you might be induced to attend with the other - this would satisfy them, they will have large meetings at both - can you come if so take your choice of places - &amp;amp; of Generals - I am content with Either

                  <text>Samuel Alschuler, judge of the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (1915-1936), was born in Chicago, Illinois, on November 20, 1959 to Bavarian-born Jacob and Caroline Stiefel Alschuler. After growing up and attending school in Aurora, Alschuler began practicing law at the age of twenty-two in 1881 and starting in the 1890s, served as a public servant for the rest of his life. As a Democrat, Alschuler won a seat in the Illinois House of Representatives in 1896. He became the House Minority leader in 1898, a position he held until leaving the House of Representatives in 1900. Alschuler unsuccessfully ran for Illinois State Governor in both 1900 and 1912. In 1915, President Woodrow Wilson recognized Alschuler&amp;rsquo;s potential and appointed him to the U.S. Court of Appeals 7th Circuit. Alschuler served as arbitrator during the meat packing labor dispute of 1918. During the coal labor problems of 1922, President Warren Harding also asked him to serve on a coal fact-find commission. Alschuler, uncertain if he could properly be a member of the commission while serving on the federal bench, chose to serve unofficially as a legal advisor to the commission. In 1925, he became the presiding judge of the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, a position he held for nine years, and retired in May 1936. Alschuler was a bachelor until 1923, when he married the daughter of the Chicago clothing manufacturer Ella Kahn. On November 10, 1939, Samuel Alschuler died, having no children. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judge Samuel Alschuler is related to the nineteenth century photographer, Samuel Alschuler. The photographer is best known for photographing Abraham Lincoln in Urbana, Illinois, in 1858 in which Lincoln wore Alschuler's black suit coat which was far too small for the political figure. Images taken by the photographer Samuel Alschuler are included in this collection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the Samuel Alschuler Papers, 1890-1940 at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum may be found at: http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/23.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This collection features photographs relating to Samuel Alschuler and his family, including unidentified family members and scenes from Chile.&amp;nbsp;</text>

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would be obliged to you if you will inform me whether your State is raising more Regiments or Companies than have been called for by the President under the requisition and call of April &amp;amp; May, and if so how many, and what you propose to do with them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seems to me that prudence and a wise forecast dictate that troops should be raised and put under discipline &amp;amp; instruction in all the loyal States, ready to march at a moments notice -
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are raising troops to be kept in reserve &amp;amp; under instruction, what are you doing in the way of uniforming and equiping them?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How many of your Regiments have already been accepted by the U.S.? An early answer will greatly oblige
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very truly your
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Obt Sevt

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would be obliged to you if you will inform me whether your State is raising more Regiments or Companies than have been called for by the President under the requisition and call of April &amp;amp; May, and if so how many, and what you propose to do with them
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seems to me that prudence and a wise forecast dictate that troops should be raised and put under discipline &amp;amp; instruction in all the loyal States, ready to march at a moments notice -
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are raising troops to be kept in reserve &amp;amp; under instruction, what are you doing in the way of uniforming and equiping them?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How many of your Regiments have already been accepted by the U.S.? An early answer will greatly oblige
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very truly your
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Obt Sevt
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His Excellency
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Govr Yates

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Allow me to introduce to your favorable notice Lieut. A. H. Dillon late of the 26th Ill. Infantry.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anything you can do to aid him to accomplish his purpose will result, I have no doubt, in good to the country, and will gratify 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your obt servt

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would respectfully and urgently recommend to your favorable consideration Mr. Rogers Fowler, for the position of commissary for the volunteers now being raised in this state.  He is a gentleman of excellent business habits, and has been engaged in the lumber trade.  I know of no person better qualified to satisfactorily perform the duties of the position of Commissary.  His appointment would, I think, give universal satisfaction to his friends here, and also to the persons with whom he would meet in such official capacity.  He has been, also, an active and hard working republican, and rendered valuable aid in the late campaign.  His appointment would be considered by me as a personal favor.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Isaac W. Arnold
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;"&gt;Sir&lt;/span&gt;: The assassination of the illustrious defender of the sacred rights of humanity, which has cost your country such precious blood, has created a sensation of horror among the nations of the world.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The free fatherland of Washington and of Benjamin Franklin, a hospitable soil to all who emigrate from the despotisms of ancient Europe, mourns, in the murder of its new liberator, an event the equal of which does not exist.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In every civilized nation, upon the arrival of the news of his death, there was a day of mourning; as for ourselves, we cursed the infamous assassin and thought it impossible sufficiently to deplore this atrocious and iniquitous crime.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;There are in the world some beings who, when they die, like luminous planets when they set, leave behind them only gloom and obscurity. Lincoln was one of these.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The committee of the Italian Union in Sienna, sharing the sorrow of the generous sons of America, send you a word of sincere condolence, with a sad salutation.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Noble President! may you be able to dry the tears of your countrymen and of ourselves.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p class="flushleft"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Italians of Abruzzo to the people of the United States of America:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;From the summits of our mountains, the bulwarks of liberty, from the banks of our rivers and the shores of our seas, a people who wish to be united, free, and independent have long bent their eyes upon events in the great republic whence they expect a new light to radiate upon the world, with a new era of democratic civilization.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Your history is the same as ours. From Camillus and Cincinnatus to Franklin and Washington, from Lincoln and Seward to Garibaldi and Mazzini, the tradition of the great struggle between good and evil, liberty and slavery, civilization and barbarism, national autonomy and the rule of foreign despots, has ever been the same.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The roar of your battles was borne across the ocean and awaked an echo in our Appenines. Your victories were the triumph of humanity. But very soon the electric spark, drawn from the clouds by Franklin, told us that a parricidal hand had taken the life of Abraham Lincoln, when the destinies of his country and partly of the world were trusted to his care, and, at the same time, announced the savage attack upon Mr. Seward and his family.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;A voice of detestation and of horror arose throughout the world; the symbols of liberty were draped in mourning everywhere; anguish filled our hearts; but we rejoice that the cause of humanity cannot perish. The blood of new martyrs fertilizes the earth, and makes it the mother of freedmen.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Abraham Lincoln gave his life to save the integrity of the Union and the grandeur of his country, to rescue the colored man from slavery, to give to all men liberty and equality.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;When peace shall be restored the white and black races will join hands above his grave, and the spirit of liberty, rising from his sepulchre, will renovate the surface of the earth, and make the return of any tyranny impossible.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
