Sir

I am in receipt of your affidavit in relation to condition of the family of your Son Ebenezer Franklin of Co. A. 100th Regt. Ills. Vols. whose wife during his absence had deserted his Children, leaving them helpless & in charge on your hands &c &c. I have not the authority to discharge him from the service but have forwarded your affidavit to the Secretary of War requesting him to do so but am somewhat doubtful as to the result

Very Respectfully

Richd. Yates

Governor
