Needs Review Transcription A written representation of a document or a page. Shawneetown Ills Aug 16/62 His Excellency, Governor Yates. Dear Sir Your constituents in Egypt would ask at your hand the promotion of Lt Col Olney of the Sixth Ills Cav, to the command of some of the many Infantry Regts now forming in Ills. He cannot procure leave of absence for which he has applied to canvass the south part of the state, which if permitted but for a few weeks, more companies would rally to his standard than to that of any other man. He desires a change not that he is dissatisfied with his regt, for he is attached to it and it devotedly to him, to which all the captains and men will testify, possessing superior administrative abilities, he has as commander at Paducah elicited the highest praise from citizens and soldiers, He wants a Regt of Infantry where <hr /> he can have active service in the field, where there is an opportunity to distinguish himself and some room for promotion, which he is denied in Cavalry and stationed at Paducah. Forgive us for trespassing on your time as you no doubt are greatly annoyed by many applications of this sort, but earnestly wishing to see your Excellency gain a multitude of friends, having at heart the good of the whole country anxious to have our regts headed by men whose courage and eminent ability will command the entire confidence of all parties, in Southern Illinois. (he being decidedly the strongest man of our party in this Congressional District) is our excuse for thus troubling you Truly Your Friends, Geo A. Ridgway Peeples & Ridgway <hr /> Geo. A. Ridgway & Peeples Ridgway Shawneetown Aug 16th 1862. Says that your constituents in Egypt desire the promotion of Lt Col. Olney 6th Ill Cav. to the command of an Infantry Reg't. Give the Lt Col. a high testimonial for ability &c. & say that he is decidedly the strongest man of our party in this Congl. Dists. Geo A. Ridgway Peeples Ridgway.

Needs Review Transcription A written representation of a document or a page. Bolivar Tenn August 16 1862 To His Excellency Richard Yates Governor of Illinois Sir I take the liberty of writing you as to the position of Lieut Col Smith the Seventeenth Regt Ills Vols. I have been connected with this Regt, as Chaplain, since the first of January 1862. I have been present with it since that time, except when ordered to Illinois on recruiting service. It has so happened that, except for a few days, Mr Smith, either as Major or Lt Colonel, has been in command of the Regt during all the time I have been with it. - at Cape Girardeau in our advance from Pittsburg Landing to Corinth, at Bethel, at Jackson & at this place. I have thus been in contact with him as commander for many months & favorably situated to form an opinion of him on all matters a Chaplain may be acquainted with. Upon his moral character then can be no [inspectation?]. Of intemperance or profanity I have never known him quietly & of his desire for the north being & morality of the Regt I have known many instances. And he always rendered to me <hr /> all needed aid in professional duties with the Regt. Knowing the relation of some of the Chaplains to their superior officers I have always felt that I had reason to be very grateful for my own more favorable position. And, so far as Col Smiths position with reference to the Regt in a military point of view is concerned, as Chaplain it may be proper for me to say that I have admired the faithfulness with which Col Smith has filled his place as Commander notwithstanding almost continual ill health. Sick or well, we have found him at his post & in the performance of his duties. Such faithfulness, I think, gives him a claim upon his country & should not go unrewarded. It has also given to him an experience & a knowledge well fitting him for the command of a Regt & invaluable to any of the new Regts forming in Illinois. Of his bravery I need not speak. It has been fully tested & proved at Fredericton, Donalson & Shiloh. As myself a citizen of Galesburg I may be permitted to remind Your Excellency of the fact that it has freely given men & money to the country & is now doing nobly for the suppression of the rebellion & yet the only officer it has had higher than Capt is Lt Col Smith. It has raised its own companies & made its own Company Officers, but it has had no higher officer in the field than <hr /> a Lieut Colonel & no field officer but this. I doubt whether the same can be said of any other city in Illinois which has sent out as many men, contributed as much money & manifested as earnest patriotism as Galesburg. I trust this the sole & meritorious field officer from Galesburg will yet have the place he has earned, as Colonel of some brave Regt of Illinois volunteers. Very respectfully S.A. Kingsbery <hr /> S.A. Kingsbury, Bolavar Tenn Aug 16/62 Lieut Col Smith of the 17th Regt. his abilities, and conduct at Shiloh, Donelson, & other places of note, in which the writer shows his bravery & coolness & Excellent discipline, should be Colonel.

Wilmeth <hr /> Executive Department Springfield, Ills., Augt 14, 1862. Dear Sir: Your application for a position in an Illinois regiment has been carefully considered by Governor Yates, and placed on file for future reference. The pressure of business, and accumulation of papers in the Executive office is so great at this time, that the Governor himself, is unable to answer each correspondent. I am therefore requested to state: In regard to appointments in the regiments already organized, that he will be governed by General Order No. 43, herewith enclosed. In respect to companies and regiments now being formed, General Order No. 61, War Department, Series 1861, as well as sound policy, forbids the mustering in of officers until the respective organizations have the requisite number of recruits. Then appointments will be made, upon consultation with officers and men, from among those who have spent their time and money in bringing the men into camp. The fairness of this rule will be apparent to all. In appointing Surgeons, Assistant Surgeons, Quartermasters, and Adjutants, after a regiment is organized, the recommendation of the Colonel will be required and considered. Chaplains are selected by the Regimental Commander upon the vote of the commissioned officers. Your patriotic and active co=operation in this hour of our country's peril, is earnestly solicited. J.W.
