Richd Yates, Dear sir, Enclosed herewith is a letter from Mr. Preston of Lockport, which I beg you to read and consider, upon the subject of assaying Mr. N.S. Hawley to a post, if possible in the Artillery Service. Mr. H. certainly has the capacity to make a most useful and efficient officer; and it is a subject of deep regret to his freinds that difficulties at Cairo [sartyran?] when he was stationed for a time, (with the merits of which I am not acquainted) - operated to detach him from a line of employment for which he seems so peculiarly fitted. Personal freindship and family relations cause me to feel a deep solicitude in his behalf and to express an earnest hope that he may have another chance; if possible. I am quite aware of the overwhelming duties upon you at this time, but would be grateful if you would drop me a single line announcing to me your feelings in reference to Mr. H. Yours Very Respy G.D.A. Parks. <hr /> Ansd Sept 22nd 62 G.D.A. Parks Joliet Aug 13/62 Enclosing a letter from Mr Preston of Lockport upon the subject of promotion or assigning Mr. N.L.
