GLOVER, COOK & CAMPBELL,

Law and Collection Office,

Ottawa, Ill., Nov 20th 1863

To His Excellency Gov Yates

Dear Sir

My friend Judge Wm Chumasen desires to visit Memphis and would be glad to get a letter from you which would keep him in passing from point to point occupied by our troops. Mr C. is a true man all earnest republican and in every respect entirely trust worthy he has practised law for 25 years in this Co and is one of our most respected & influential citizens. I hope you will find it consistent with the public service to give him such a letter as he wants

Very Truly Yours

B.C. Cook
