Mrs. Sties Maquon Ills
Madam. I am in receipt of statements of two gentleman friends of yours in relation to your son Joseph Sties of 25th Regt Ills. Vols. and have, today, written to the commanding officer of the regiment requesting him to have him examined and discharged if it is consistent to do so-Minors cannot be discharged simply on ground of minority but if physically incapacitated for duties of a soldier may be discharged. Will send you information that may be received on the subject
Very truly
