Woodville, June 6/64 Gov. Yates Sir Presuming much upon your kindness to the soldier, I have ventured to address you upon a subject which I consider but Justice. My husband enlisted in the service of the United States, in Illinois Winnebago Co two years ago this coming August. By enlisting he lost nearly three hundred dollars by being obliged to sell stock &c at reduced prices, which also reduced my means of support to a very limited allowance. but he my husband was faithfully promised that his family should be cared for by those in authority. I wished to come to Ohio to live among my friends during my husband's absence and was told that would not make the least difference. Well to cut the matter short I have never received one cent. I made <hr /> application but it did no good my husband has no been in hard service ever since he entered but the Army and is now wounded lying in the hospital at New Albany Ind where I would go to him if I had the means but I am in hopes he will be furloughed I pray God he may. Now my dear sir I would never have written this to you if I were a healthy woman and able to support myself and family I have to children now. I lost a little boy about a month ago. I am sick a great deal tis true I get my husband's wages but I ask you if you could support a family of 4 on thirteen dollars a month. I could get along well enough were it not for sickness. I have not meant to tell you a pitiful tale to excite your pity but I have merely stated the plain truth and ask you that justice may be done me. I have five brothers in the army beside <hr /> numberless other relatives and no one of us have ever made application for relief but me and I have never received any I do not think I shall starve if I do not get anything for I have planted a patch of potatoes and sugar cane and if I am able to take care of them I shall have that much at any rate and I am also reviewing my studies intending to teach again if my health will allow me.

Military Prison Mason Georgia June 2d 1864 His Excellency Gov Richard Yates Springfield Ills Dear Sir I am making an effort to obtain for myself a Special exchange for Major Thomas P. Branch of the C A who was captured before Drurys Bluff on the 16th Ult. I am assured that if our Govt will Send him South, the confederate authorities on their part will release me. Hoping to secure your aid & influence in this behalf, with the Sec of war & with President Lincoln I now write you. You may not, perhaps <hr />be aware, that for thirteen months, I have been held as a prisoner of war. That I am & for a long time have & been the oldest captured Federal officer of my rank in the hands of the South, that during the past year many officers of same grade as myself have been Specially & otherwise exchanged & that all but two of them were more recently captured than myself. This is the first effort I have made in the direction of a Special exchange I have felt unwilling to urge the Govt to do for me what it seemed unwilling, or unable to do for all its officers & thus I have remained in prison while others more recently captured who presented their personal claims <hr />to the Govt have been released. Special exchanges are constantly going forward & unless I can effect this kind of an exchange, I see no hope of saving my life. My health is already seriously impaired by long confinement & this consideration with many other induces me to make this effort. Did I feel that it was necessary for me still to remain here & even to die I would not complain. But as exchange has been conducted I can conceive of no such necessity.
