Eureka. Humboldt Co. Cal. Jan'y 29th, 1865 Hon. Richard Yates Sir I would ask a favour of you as of a former acquaintance, I will tell you where I became aware of your worth, it was when you was a Student and a graduate at Ill. College. I then lived in President Beecher's family, and studied there a little, being poor I have had to work, I came to Cal'a in /49 and made money, but in consequence of going a worthy Gentleman's bond in a law suit in which he was swindled, we where the loosers. I could also tell you of the loss of my Mother & Family on the Plains in /51, together with the loss of a great deal of property, but would refer your honor to my friends, M. Henderson, Representative from Oregon, also Senator G.H. Williams from same state, who I believe will aid me in what I ask of you. It is to an Office in this State such as one as Port Inspector at this (Humboldt Bay) or some other position of like value without very heavy [bonds?]; or Collector of Internal Revenue for this district. I have been Enrolling Officer of this Dist last year but have got through. We have District Land Offices to fill here but the old _____ ones may be [retained?] in Office, as to my politics, I voted for Fremont in 1850, and President Lincoln both terms because I know that "Eternal vigilance is the price of Liberty." I have also been in Military Service in Oregon and if you should ask for further reference, I would gladly give it, but trusting that you will aid one who has long respected you as a Friend I Remain Yours Most Respectfully James Clark Hon Richard Yates. P.S. Allow me to congratulate you on your Election to the U.S. Senate and it would give me pleasure to vote for you for President. JC Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

With J.L. Tincher letter 7/11/65 Jacksonville July 12/65 Gov. Yates: Enclosed you will find a letter from Judge J. Peters, endorsed by John L. Tincher, urging you to use your influence in getting me the appointment of Postmaster at Danville. I came up to see you, in person, and they left it to me to tell you why they wanted the change. The citizens want a change in the office, and although I have not circulated a Petition yet, I have the assurance of all the leading business men and county officers that they will sign it. Mr. Kingsbury, the present incumbent, does not attend to the office at all, being absent for weeks at a time, leaving the entire control of the office to a fellow who was imported from Indiana, about the time the "draft" was to take effect there. The Judge wanted me to apologize for the appearance of his letter. He has been quite sick. Governor, I expect you know better what I want than I do myself. Will you please drop me a line telling me what to do? Will your recommendation to the Dep't be sufficient, or will Mr. Bromwell have to be consulted? I have a poor chance to write here, and will have to ask you to excuse this scrawl. If I am successful in the application I will faithfully perform the duties, and then I will give employment to an old Soldier who has served 16 months in Rebel prison pens. Governor, please write me a note telling me just what to do. I can get up the Petition at any time and send to you if necessary. Allow me to congratulate you on your Elgin oration. If that is printed in phamplet (sic) form I want some of them. Hoping to hear from you soon I remain Your friend James D. Kilpatrick Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

With J.L. Tincher letter 7/11/65 Jacksonville July 12/65 Gov. Yates: Enclosed you will find a letter from Judge J. Peters, endorsed by John L. Tincher, urging you to use your influence in getting me the appointment of Postmaster at Danville. I came up to see you, in person, and they left it to me to tell you why they wanted the change. The citizens want a change in the office, and although I have not circulated a Petition yet, I have the assurance of all the leading business men and county officers that they will sign it. Mr. Kingsbury, the present incumbent, does not attend to the office at all, being absent for weeks at a time, leaving the entire control of the office to a fellow who was imported from Indiana, about the time the "draft" was to take effect there. The Judge wanted me to apologize for the appearance of his letter. He has been quite sick. Governor, I expect you know better what I want than I do myself. Will you please drop me a line telling me what to do? Will your recommendation to the Dep't be sufficient, or will Mr. Bromwell have to be consulted? I have a poor chance to write here, and will have to ask you to excuse this scrawl. If I am successful in the application I will faithfully perform the duties, and then I will give employment to an old Soldier who has served 16 months in Rebel prison pens. Governor, please write me a note telling me just what to do. I can get up the Petition at any time and send to you if necessary. Allow me to congratulate you on your Elgin oration. If that is printed in phamplet (sic) form I want some of them. Hoping to hear from you soon I remain Your friend James D. Kilpatrick Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
