Gov of Illinois

My Dear Sir

To carry into effect and to enroll the Army under the act of Congress just passed you will of course have the appointment of many officers.

I believe so far I have applied for allmost every thing within your gift without sucess.

I will again ask of you the appointment of "Provost Marshall" or a Cols. Commission under this act subject to your orders

Yours truly

W. G. Wheaton
