Olney Ills. Oct. 1st 1864 To His Excellency Gov. Yates. Dear Sir, Parden me for calling your attention to the recent murder, at Quincy in this State, of my Son Lewis Wright---a Soldier---by one Oliver F. Cornman who called himself a "Missouri bushwhacker," in a manner that I think calls for his arrest, trial and punishment by a military court. Said Lewis Wright was a private in Com "C." 63rd Ills. Vol. but on account of sickness in the Summer of 1863, was transfered to the Vet Reserve Corpse, and in April last was sent to Capt. Asbury Provost Marshal at Quincy Ills. as one of his guards. The evidence in the case is about as follows, (as I saw the written statements of three witnesses, in the hands of Capt. Asbury) On the evening of the 8th of Sept./64, while Wright was standing on the sidewalk near the Provost Marshal's office in Quincy, engaged in a friendly and social conversation with two citizens of his acquaintance, they were rudely accosted by one of two persons <hr /> (2) who came up and spoke insultingly to them, but on receiving no answer, walked a few steps past, halted, came back and this man Cornman challenged them for a fight, addressing himself to Wright, and said he would bet him One hundred dollars against fifty that he could whip him, saying something about Soldiers at the same time, to which Wright replied that if he was a Soldier, he was a civil man and would have no disturbence with a citizen, that he would "not fight a citizen". Cornman urged for a fight and became more boisterous. Wright, in a mild manner, repeated his former remarks, to which Cornman said he was "no citizen." Wright asked him what he was? if he was neither citizen nor soldier? Cornman said "I am a Missouri bushwhacker." The two took hold of each other. Wright struck Cornman with his fist and knocked him down. Cornman jumped up came at him swearing and threatening. Wright knocked him down again in like manner, and commenced striking him in the face. The other fellow who came up with Cornman caught Wright about the shoulders and threw him back some distance. Wright fell to his hands & knees. <hr /> (3) and as he was getting up Cornman commenced shooting at him with a revolver, discharged four shots in quick succession. and wheeled and runn. Wright fell at the first shot & commenced getting up---fell again at the second shot & made no effort to get up. Two of the shots were fatal,---one taking effect in the bowels, and the other in the lungs---a third a small flesh wound. Wright lingered about 46 hours and died conscious of having given no offence. Cornman, though a stranger to Wright and unknown to him or to those who were with him at the time of the shooting---turned up to be a citizen of Quincy, and was arrested and is jail on a formal charge of murder to await his trial before the Circuit Court. I do not like to impugn the motives of others, but I have little doubt the matter will be baffled in the Circuit Court---put off, and finally the criminal go with but little or no punishment, whereas a military Court is the proper one to try "bushwhackers," and where justice would be sure. Permit me to say (although Lewis was my son) that I know, and I have it from his officers and fellow soldiers, that he was a faithful and brave soldier, that he was courtous an civil to all persons---That he sought the acquaint <hr /> ance of others for social and religious intercourse, and was loved and respected by all who knew him in the army.

With F. Hirshback letter 12/12/64 <pre> Office of the Waukegan Weekly Gazette, </pre> <pre> Waukegan, Ill. Dec 7th 1864 </pre> James Y. Cory. Editor and Prop'r Dear Sir: <pre> Some two or three weeks since I wrote you in relation to getting some men from the Draft rendezvous in your City, assigned to the 65th Ill. Infantry. Col. Wm. Scott Stewart, since when I have heard no word from you. I infer that you may never have seen my letter. In relation to this Matter, my dear Gov. I certainly do not wish to bore you, being aware that the disposition of those men does not belong to you, a (cou??) within your jurisdiction, Still I was of the impression that a "good word" from you to Col. Oaks, would accomplish the whole matter. Col. Stewart is my personal friend and I am very anxious that the ranks of his regt. should be filled up, by the addition of at least 250 Men, which would enable him to be mustered in as a Colonel. Stewart is a resident of Waukegan, a splendid fellow, and out and out Republican. His regiment </pre> <hr /> was in the late battle at Franklin, and from all accounts, fought like devils, led on by their gallant Col. The 65th killed a rebel Brigadier Genl, a Colonel and several minor officers, besides making general slaughter among the "Johnies." Capturing a rebel battle flag. <pre> Should it be in your power to use your influence with Col. Oaks, to the end that the 65th could have 250, new men, I should feel Everlastingly obliged. The 65th being one of the Veteran regiments, Comes legitimately under the rule of the War Dept. for assigning the drafted men. </pre> <pre> If entirely agreeable I should like to hear from you on the subject. </pre> <pre> Sincerely your friend </pre> <pre> James Y. Cory </pre> Hon Rich.

With F. Hirshback letter 12/12/64 <pre> Office of the Waukegan Weekly Gazette, </pre> <pre> Waukegan, Ill. Dec 7th 1864 </pre> James Y. Cory. Editor and Prop'r Dear Sir: <pre> Some two or three weeks since I wrote you in relation to getting some men from the Draft rendezvous in your City, assigned to the 65th Ill. Infantry. Col. Wm. Scott Stewart, since when I have heard no word from you. I infer that you may never have seen my letter. In relation to this Matter, my dear Gov. I certainly do not wish to bore you, being aware that the disposition of those men does not belong to you, a (cou??) within your jurisdiction, Still I was of the impression that a "good word" from you to Col. Oaks, would accomplish the whole matter. Col. Stewart is my personal friend and I am very anxious that the ranks of his regt. should be filled up, by the addition of at least 250 Men, which would enable him to be mustered in as a Colonel. Stewart is a resident of Waukegan, a splendid fellow, and out and out Republican. His regiment </pre> <hr /> was in the late battle at Franklin, and from all accounts, fought like devils, led on by their gallant Col. The 65th killed a rebel Brigadier Genl, a Colonel and several minor officers, besides making general slaughter among the "Johnies." Capturing a rebel battle flag. <pre> Should it be in your power to use your influence with Col. Oaks, to the end that the 65th could have 250, new men, I should feel Everlastingly obliged. The 65th being one of the Veteran regiments, Comes legitimately under the rule of the War Dept. for assigning the drafted men. </pre> <pre> If entirely agreeable I should like to hear from you on the subject. </pre> <pre> Sincerely your friend </pre> <pre> James Y. Cory </pre> Hon Rich. Yates Gov. of Illinois Springfield Ill Respectfully Ref'd to Col Oakes Dec 12 1864. <pre> Rich'd Yates </pre> <pre> Gov. </pre> <hr /> Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

Aug 22d, 1982 Hon Richd Yates Governor Ill. Sir: I have your favor of 15th inst. in relation to the regiment which has been authorized to be raised in the State, for State Service. As you have already been telegraphed to, by some of our citizens, asking that a place be reserved in this regiment for the Company now forming in Lake County, I write, at your request, concerning the number of men that can be relied upon from here and would say that you may implicitly rely upon a full company from this County, and would urge that inasmuch as this Company will be full this week that you give us some assurance of its certainty of being accepted. Please enter our company and you shall not be disappointed in gitting it as <hr /> promised. In the company will be a number of Veterans, Noble fellows who have already served their three years. Now Governor, we are in earnest about this, our Company is being raised by an officer., Lieut Reid, of the old 15th Ill who is pushing the matter right along, and we can't afford to go through all the ceremonies, get our men to Camp Butler and there find out, perhaps that there is no plan for us. What we want is to know that we have the place secure, then there will be something to aim at & we can get on [better?]. But so long as there is an uncertainty about it is difficult to keep up the steam. Just telegraph me positively that our company has been accepted & you will not wait many days ere you will find Little Lake on hand with [her?] full company. Respectfully James Y Cory <hr /> Please answer as soon as convenient by telegraph <hr /> Cory, James Y Waukegan Ill Aug 22 64 Asks if his company will surely be accepted if raised. Will be full in a week <hr /> Telegraph "I answer by mail" & with following Answer I cannot telegraph you positively because I am asked to do so by enough men to fill three Regts, but I think you are farther advanced than any Co. I know of and I think you are very sure of being rec'd - If I were to pursue the course you require of there would be more than enough Cos offered to cut you out - I sincerely hope your company will be one of the ten and I think there is not much doubt of this Sent telegram Snyder Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

Office of the Waukegan Weekly Gazette James Y Cory Editor and Prop'r Waukegan, Ill Jany 17th 1865 My dear Sir: I have waited until I supposed you had got once more quietly settled at your home in Jacksonville, after the arduous official duties, to which you have given your time and energies during the past four years, before writing to Congrat- ulate you upon your triumphant election, to the honorable position of United States Senator, from the noble state over which you have presided as Chief Executive during the most trying period through which our country and State has ever passed. And believe me, though late, my congratulations are none the less heartfelt and sincere. And may the great Law Giver, who has been so scrupulously watchful over your public life in the past, ever, in the future, remain your steadfast friend, protecter and adviser. You were quite correct in your supposition, contained in your letter to me, some weeks since, <hr /> that you had many friends in Lake County indeed I am quite certain that you was the first choice of a large majority of the people of our County, and the opposition which manifested itself, just previous to the meeting of the Legislature, was manufactured by a few designing men. To give you an instance, which will suf- fice for all: E. M. Haines stated publicly in this city that you were entitled to no credit for the act of proroguing the "Rump" Legislature and thus heading off the machinations of the Copperheads in that body. He stated that you sent for him, at that time, to help you out of the scrape", to know what course you should adopt in the premises; that you was laboring under so great mental excitement as to be entirely incapacitated to act, that he (Haines) told you what to do and how to do it, and it was so done, and that this was but a fair sample of your other acts. &c &c These statements being made in public, by one who was supposed to be your friend before that, taken in connection with his <hr /> recent circular, and general course of his hostility towards you about that time, was the sole and only cause of whatever opposition there appeared against you in this County. The individual who had the vote of Lake County in custody, is looked upon here as the mere tool of M. Haines, and it is also con- sidered here, that he was not against you until he was made to by the workings of the man Haines I have been thus explicit that the people of our county may stand aquit of any opposition at heart towards you. In all friendship therefore, my dear Gov. I would advise you to entirely rid yourself of E. M Haines in the future. Your apparent friendship, or even endurance of him, would give him position and character with which to rise up and injure you, as he has already attempted to do. His past course should entirely satisfy you of this. The half has not been told you. But Enough. Allow me one word, personal to myself, you are probably aware that I hold the high and honorable position <hr /> of postmaster at this place. The position however, I am not in partial to; but, I assure you, the perquisites arriving there- from in these perilous times are almost indispensable to the running of the Waukegan Gazette. And only think, if that political literary luminary should be extinguished what would become of the Country?!! I don't want to be considered mean or even a bore, but if you can see any way or devise any plan by which I could longer dignify that honorable po- sition, will you be kind enough to inform me? Our member, Genl Farnsworth, and myself are warm personal friends. May I not also hope for your kindly wishes and endeavors in that direction, in case that Mr. Haines, or the gentleman who he attempted is boost into the position to which you have been elevated, should attempt to muddle with me, officially? Meantime, should it be con- sidered desirable to obtain petitions from our citizens, as expressions of their wishes, sufficient of that sort can be furnished on call. Believe me my dear friend, Yours Sincerely, James Y. Cory Please allow this to be confidential P. S. If you have one of Haines circulars, such as I sent you to spare I would thank you to send me one. <hr /> Cory James Y Waukegan Jany 17th 65 Congraulatory friendly and wants your influ- ence to retain the Post Office Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
