I merely state this to show you how much of fortunes favors I have known. Securing my education by labor after and before "school hours" and during vacations I believe I know the energy necessary to be carried into any pursuit in order to accomplish any important object. Now Governor had I disposed of my political principles last summer for money or had those in whom I confided used that <hr /> influence for me to sustain me that they promised and that I had reason to expect after aiding and assisting to elevate them to public positions, I would not ask you to assist me at this time. If you could aid me to obtain a situation where I might obtain a salary sufficient to sustain myself and family and give me an opportunity to pay of a few demands against me, I would feel just as I think you would feel were you a young man in my situation - truly grateful. Should I obtain a position as quartermaster of a regiment or any other, I will try and do my duty honestly, energetically and faithfully. Do not recommend nor appoint me unless from what you know or can learn of me I am competent. I write this between hope and fear but I rely <hr /> upon your kindness and forbearance.

I have no doubt you have been put under pretty severe prefsure from quarters where I am quite sure there is no real sympathy for you, & to which you owe nothing. Browning will make an Excellent Senator. If I do not interfere with my advice, in these matters, I beg you will not understand that it is on account of any want of interest in them.

Dr G. has been appointed Surgeon of this Regement by Col Marsh, & Dr F. K. Baily Afst. Surgeon. As a matter of pride, and really of conscience now, for they have both been employed nearly from the beginning, they would like to retain their places. I suppose there is really no diffi culty in the matter. But they feel anxious. Dr G has pafsed his examination before the Committee. Dr B will be ready to do so on <hr /> his arrival at Springfield. I think them both pecu liarly well fitted for their respective positions, & both well qualified. Dr G is from Clinton DeWitte C. & brings the best of recommendations. Dr B is an old practicioner here & I Know of no more faithful or conscientious man to fill his place. Both have given, I believe, entire satisfaction - Excuse me for this hasty note.
