Kalamazoo, Mich. Sept. 24./61. To His Excellency, Gov. Yates, of the State of Illinois Respected Sir, The undersigned, a citizen of this State, having made respectful request of Gov. Blair for a commission for a couple of friends, and having, indirectly, received answer that Gov. B. "had done all he felt inclined to do for Kalamazoo," entirely rejecting competency, or experience, in his selection; and feeling assured that I have, in my friends, gentlemen of the first order of talent, I take the liberty of addressing you. The first I would name, is Dr. E. E. Lee, a graduate of the N. Y. City Medical College, and for three years an assistant of an <hr /> European Hospital. He is a cousin of his Excellency, the Secretary of the Navy, and is connected by blood and marriage with some of the most talented families of this country. He is about 33 years of age and of the rigidly correct habits of life. He desires to pass an examination before any tribunal. My second, is Prof. James Maurice Hubbard, formerly the tenor of the celebrated "Blakelys Troupe," and pronounced, by Ole Bull, as the most correct interpreter of his music, in this county. All the musical talent of Chicago, I hazard, will second me in recommending him to your distinguished consideration. Both gentlemen refer to the "ministry" of this place, the officers of this <hr /> county, and the Judges of this district, as to their private characer. These gentlemen have been so unkindly treated by Gov. Blair, that, unbeknown to them, but at the request of their friends, I make bold to present their names. Capt. C. C. Webb, who is recruiting for the "[Brogan?] Rifles," (of your State,) in this place, feels much interest in this matter, and believes, that, if these gentlemen should receive commissions from you, that he could raise a regiment on the strength of them.
