These men stated they were sent to Annapolis from [illegible] Prison, on account of [illegible] sickness; from Annapolis to Chicago, as they were told, at the request of the Governor, so that ---- they might be [illegible] before being exchanged. Most of them are from the northern part of Ill. are fully able to be of furloughed & would be greatly improved in health & morale by the favor. I spoke to Dr. Jackson, Surgeon of City Hospital, on the subject. He said he did not know that paroled men were entitled to furlough. I felt assured you could & would give me the necessary information. I told the boys I should apply to you for it. They were greatly elated. Nothing but deep interest in our brave soldiers leads me to trespass on your valuable time. Your sincere friend Mrs. A. C. Hoge Mrs. A. C. Hoge Chicago March 4, 1864.

Geneva Illinois March 7. 1864 To whom it may concern: Mr Reeser, the bearer of this desires to go to Knoxville Tenn. to bring back his brother in law Elias Bennett, a member of the Elgin Battery, who has been for a long time sick in the hospital. It is reported that Bennetts officers are entirely willing that he should go home, but he is too sick to come without assistance and great care. It gives me pleasure to say that Mr Reeser is one of our old citizens and a man of excellent character. He is worthy the confidence of the military authorities and I heartily commend him to their kind consideration. Any aid or facilities they may extend to him will be worthily bestowed. Isaac G. Wilson Circuit Judge P.S. Mr Bennetts wife also desires to accompany Mr Reeser. <hr /> Wilson, Judge. Isaac G. Geneva. Ills.
