U.S. Gen. Hosp. Annapolis. Md. Febr. 22. 1863. Hon. Mr. Yates, Governor of Illinois, I seat myself to direct a few lines to you, which I hope will meet with favorable success, and will be received with kindness. I am well aware of your hearing all the particulars of the late great battles of Muffressboro , in which most particular the sons of Illinois done honor to their noble state, of which they are proud of. But I do not think, that anyone can imagine the trial and hardships we also had to go through after meeting with the fate of a true soldier, in being wounded and then taken prisoner by those heartless traitors of so glorious a nation of ours. But for the sake of all that is dear to us, we endured fatigue, imprisonment, cold and hunger, until we landed safe on the shore of Maryland, to call us once more; Uncle Sams boys. We are here now, applying to you and entreating your kind sympathies <hr /> and calling on you for aid, to use your influence at the War Department to call the Sons of Illinois to their own State, to let them remain there, untill they are exchanged; when they will ever be ready, once more to rally around that standard, to strike the death blow to this cursed rebellion. I am nothing but a private, who served for nineteen months, from day to day fulfilled his duties, untill I was wounded at the late battle, from which I am not quite well yet. Allthough never before wishing to leave my regiment on a furlough, I now plead to You to send if possible, a free pass for me and a companion of mine, to Springfield. I should be very thankfull, if my wish could be granted; for I cannot at any rate serve my country at present, untill exchanged; when <hr /> I will then gladly and joyfully grasp my arms with the warcry: Union, Liberty or Death! I do sincerely hope you will have it in your power to grant my wish; if not, I wish at anyrate to soon hear your opinion about the matter, if only in a few lines; and I remain your humble and obedient servant Fred.
