Dear Sir Once more I take the Liberty of Writing a few lines to you hoping you will do for me all you can. Allow me Colonel, if you will not deem me presuming to much, to give you a true and correct history of my case. As you well aware I enlisted last winter as a Private in my old company again, was stationed 4 months as Clerk at General Whites Head Quarters, and recieved on the 24th day of May 1864 from His Excell: Gov Yates my commission as Captain of my old Company back again. I started imediatly for my co., took command of my company as you will see by enclosing orders, went trough several fights with them. I applied afterwards by Gen. Smith for muster, he ordered my muster, but mustering Officer would not must me, on account of smallness of Co. Afterwards I applied to be relieved from my comand, General Smith ordered me to report to Adjt. General for instructions, I done so. I came back to Springfield, reported, and Gen: Fuller told me himself, that I should go home to Chicago, and stay there, untill he could fix something about my case. I done strictly according to his Orders. Last Friday Colonel, I was arrested at my home as a deserter and locked up amongst Thieves, and Bountyjumpers at Camp Douglas; when I am innocent, and done strictly according to my Orders. - It is hard Colonel, a young man like myself, a man who served his adopted Country faithful as a Soldier and Officer for the last (4) four years to be locked up, amongst Deserters, when I done nothing, only what I am ordered do to, and probaly Adjt. Gen: Fuller <hr /> If you cant do anything else, please procure my release, trough the Governor", before Wuenesday; and I'll come to Springfield myself. - Then I done according to my orders. by neglecting my case, I have to suffer here.

I went day and night around before the Election, to gett some of my Countrymen straight, and helpd to arrest some of the bushwackers; - If I only could gett to see some of my polit. Friends here, they would take some steps for me, but nobody is allowed to come to camp. If I col. was not innocent, and done strictly according to my Orders, I would not say anything. Now I would beg of you Col. with all my heart, to go and see Gov: Yates yourself, explain him the whole case, let him see my Orders, they even have copies of them in the Adjt. Gen's office, and I know and satisfied that Gov. Yates a true Soldiers friend will have me or at least by his influence have me released; and mustered in as Capt; or not succeding in that mustered out of the Service, then it would Col. be very hard for me to serve as a Private amongst men, who I commanded for three years, and often had to punish. - No Colonel, Do all you can for me, I beg you, and soon, then I am informed from Hd. Quarters to day, that if I was not released by Wuenesday, I will be send to Cincinati. Trough the influence of Lt. Morris Post Adjt, I procured the favor of sending those lines to you.

With George W. Hamilton letter 2/28/65 With Isaac L. Morrison letter 2/28/65 With W. Walker " 1/3/64 Springfield. Illinois. December 22. 1864. To the President of the United States. I have the honor respectfully to recommend Isaac L. Morrison Esq. of Jacksonville, Illinois, for the office of Dist. Attorney of the United States for the Southern District of Ill, should there be a vacancy in said office. I have been personally acquainted with Mr Morrison for many years. He has been a firm, consistent and able supporter and friend of the present Administration, from the first. He is for crushing the Rebellion by the military power, & restoring the Union, at any cost & at all hazards. He has risen by patient, assiduous, <hr /> and honest toil and study, to a deservedly distinguished professional position. I know that he is regarded by the best members of the Bar in this region of the State, as a sound and able lawyer. He is proverbially industrious & attentive to business. I believe his moral character to be without stain or reproach - and I know that he is universally esteemed by his friends and neighbors as a pure, upright, & honorable man. He is remarkably affable and obliging, yet always dignified and courteous in manner & leaning. Believing that these qualities, which none who know him will refuse to concede, render him eminently fitted to be the legal representa <hr /> tive of the U. States in this Dist, I earnestly hope that, in case a change is made, he may be appointed to the position. Very Respectfully, Your obt. servt. Newton Bateman. <hr /> Newton Bateman Springfield Ills.

With George W. Hamilton letter 2/28/65 With Isaac L. Morrison letter 2/28/65 With W. Walker " 1/3/64 Springfield. Illinois. December 22. 1864. To the President of the United States. I have the honor respectfully to recommend Isaac L. Morrison Esq. of Jacksonville, Illinois, for the office of Dist. Attorney of the United States for the Southern District of Ill, should there be a vacancy in said office. I have been personally acquainted with Mr Morrison for many years. He has been a firm, consistent and able supporter and friend of the present Administration, from the first. He is for crushing the Rebellion by the military power, & restoring the Union, at any cost & at all hazards. He has risen by patient, assiduous, <hr /> and honest toil and study, to a deservedly distinguished professional position. I know that he is regarded by the best members of the Bar in this region of the State, as a sound and able lawyer. He is proverbially industrious & attentive to business. I believe his moral character to be without stain or reproach - and I know that he is universally esteemed by his friends and neighbors as a pure, upright, & honorable man. He is remarkably affable and obliging, yet always dignified and courteous in manner & leaning. Believing that these qualities, which none who know him will refuse to concede, render him eminently fitted to be the legal representa <hr /> tive of the U. States in this Dist, I earnestly hope that, in case a change is made, he may be appointed to the position. Very Respectfully, Your obt. servt. Newton Bateman. <hr /> Newton Bateman Springfield Ills.
