&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jacksonville Illinois
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dr Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your favor of the 4th with recommendatory letter for my brother was duly received, but as a recommendation for his appointment as Asst. Assessor had in the mean time gone on to Washington he did not use the letter. [And?] this morning his commission arrived as Asst. Assessor for the 1st Div. 1st District Ill.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The strong and noble letter he will retain and for him I thank you for it.  He in common with the 200000 soldiers which Illinois has furnished to help put down the late rebellion will [ever?] remember with gratitude him who said "Illinois demands the right to do her full share in the work of preserving our glorious Union from the assaults of high handed rebellion, and I insist that you respond favorably to the tender I have made" words like the 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;above and uttered as they were in the darkest day of our proud States history will live forever.  It was a demand that Illinois should have the right to place 15 to 20,000 more men in the field when all looked dark and gloomy.  As an Illinoisan I cannot express to you my feeling for the part you took as our Chief Executive during the late War, you, however do know that we stood by you, and at all times, and especially when you said to those Wabash Legislators go home. The oration (printed copy) delivered by you at Elgin July 4th I received from you last week for which I am obliged.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles C. P. Holden
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles C. P. Holden
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chicago Aug 17 1865
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks you for letter to his Bro. who has been appointed Asst. Assessor of 1st Dist. &amp;amp;c  Compliments your great ability &amp;amp;c &amp;amp;C

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My Dr Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your favor of the 4th with recommendatory letter for my brother was duly received, but as a recommendation for his appointment as Asst. Assessor had in the mean time gone on to Washington he did not use the letter. [And?] this morning his commission arrived as Asst. Assessor for the 1st Div. 1st District Ill.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The strong and noble letter he will retain and for him I thank you for it.  He in common with the 200000 soldiers which Illinois has furnished to help put down the late rebellion will [ever?] remember with gratitude him who said "Illinois demands the right to do her full share in the work of preserving our glorious Union from the assaults of high handed rebellion, and I insist that you respond favorably to the tender I have made" words like the 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;above and uttered as they were in the darkest day of our proud States history will live forever.  It was a demand that Illinois should have the right to place 15 to 20,000 more men in the field when all looked dark and gloomy.  As an Illinoisan I cannot express to you my feeling for the part you took as our Chief Executive during the late War, you, however do know that we stood by you, and at all times, and especially when you said to those Wabash Legislators go home. The oration (printed copy) delivered by you at Elgin July 4th I received from you last week for which I am obliged.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles C. P. Holden
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles C. P. Holden
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chicago Aug 17 1865
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks you for letter to his Bro. who has been appointed Asst. Assessor of 1st Dist. &amp;amp;c  Compliments your great ability &amp;amp;c &amp;amp;C

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov. Yates-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear sirs- I am among the few, who
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has sought faithfully in the ranks of the Republican
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;party since its organization in 1856, for the good of the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;party &amp;amp; the country without asking any favors in return
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;from those for whom I have labored to my own fiduciary
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;hurt; but now, I feel like a favor in the way of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;an appointment from "Uncle Sam" would come handy,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; knowing no other way of getting at it only through
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my friends &amp;amp; those for whom I have spent my time,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;business, &amp;amp; means; I make this [plieation?] to you for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;help.  The war has ruined the legal profession for the time
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;being. &amp;amp; I have sacrificed nearly all I had in the cause of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my country as you are aware-&amp;amp; now, if you can con-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sistently with a sense of duty, procure for me an ap-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;pointment that some money in it, I shall be ten
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;thousand times obliged, &amp;amp; shall moreover, stand ready in
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the future as in the past, to rally around any Standard
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;borne by you for the sufferage of the nation.  This plain 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;talk with out flattery.  And if I cant talk plainly to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you, I dont want to talk at all.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would prefer, if I could get it, an appointment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in some one of the Territories, as I should like to help
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;shape the political future of some of those infant
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;states.  Though, I will accept any position that 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will be remunerative, if I can get it.  I am 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;not prepared to ask for any thing in particular
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;because I dont know what places are open, or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;may be open.  But supposing that you have an 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;eye on these things, &amp;amp; can exert an influence 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[infor?] of any thing you ask for.  I submit
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the whole matter to you, for your decision.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think I can get Brownwell &amp;amp; Moulton
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to lend their influence in favor of any
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;thing that may be undertaken in my behalf.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If any thing could be secured from which 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;we could derive a mutual benefit, it would
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;meet my aprobation.  If all the places are filled by
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;men more deserving than myself, then I want
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;nothing.  Will you have the kindness, Gov. to let
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;me hear from you on this Subject?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have the honor to be, sir, very respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;your sincere friend

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gov. Yates-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear sirs- I am among the few, who
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;has sought faithfully in the ranks of the Republican
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;party since its organization in 1856, for the good of the
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;party &amp;amp; the country without asking any favors in return
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;from those for whom I have labored to my own fiduciary
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;hurt; but now, I feel like a favor in the way of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;an appointment from "Uncle Sam" would come handy,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp; knowing no other way of getting at it only through
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my friends &amp;amp; those for whom I have spent my time,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;business, &amp;amp; means; I make this [plieation?] to you for
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;help.  The war has ruined the legal profession for the time
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;being. &amp;amp; I have sacrificed nearly all I had in the cause of
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;my country as you are aware-&amp;amp; now, if you can con-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sistently with a sense of duty, procure for me an ap-
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;pointment that some money in it, I shall be ten
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;thousand times obliged, &amp;amp; shall moreover, stand ready in
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the future as in the past, to rally around any Standard
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;borne by you for the sufferage of the nation.  This plain 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;talk with out flattery.  And if I cant talk plainly to
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;you, I dont want to talk at all.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would prefer, if I could get it, an appointment
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in some one of the Territories, as I should like to help
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;shape the political future of some of those infant
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;states.  Though, I will accept any position that 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will be remunerative, if I can get it.  I am 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;not prepared to ask for any thing in particular
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;because I dont know what places are open, or
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;may be open.  But supposing that you have an

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;to lend their influence in favor of any
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;thing that may be undertaken in my behalf.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;we could derive a mutual benefit, it would

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This list is not perfect but is as good as I can send at this writing.  If you desire I can get from 'Lexington' and 'Concord' additional names but you could do better by writing to [William]? Smith at Lexington and Ira Abbott at Concord. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you desire a more perfect list let me know and I will prepare it and arrange it alphabetically. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With great respect [Illegible]

OFFICE OF Holmes O. Sleight TREASURER OF HENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS CAMBRIDGE AUG 17 1865
Hon Rich Yates
Esteemed Friend
Your's of the 14th was rec late last evening and I herewith transmit you the desired list of names. In regard to prominence, there is but little difference, but those in the first column are rather more active, in fact the workers.
I could increase the list but I am fearful it would be too burdensome for you. If I can at any time, or in any way assist you further have no hesitancy in commanding my services. I do hope that our next Congress will do something to remove the terrible state of affairs in the Southern States for I can only look with distrust and great fear upon the workings of Pres Johnson's restoration system. union men in this county are about discouraged and unanimously express the conviction that our only remedy for these dreadful evils, is to grant the full benefits of citizenship to all loyal men without distinction of color. May God help our beloved land. Mrs S. Jims in kind regards and I subscribe myself
Ever and sincerely your friend  Holmes O. Sleight

OFFICE OF Holmes O. Sleight TREASURER OF HENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS CAMBRIDGE AUG 17 1865
Hon Rich Yates
Esteemed Friend
Your's of the 14th was rec late last evening and I herewith transmit you the desired list of names. In regard to prominence, there is but little difference, but those in the first column are rather more active, in fact the workers.
I could increase the list but I am fearful it would be too burdensome for you. If I can at any time, or in any way assist you further have no hesitancy in commanding my services. I do hope that our next Congress will do something to remove the terrible state of affairs in the Southern States for I can only look with distrust and great fear upon the workings of Pres Johnson's restoration system. union men in this county are about discouraged and unanimously express the conviction that our only remedy for these dreadful evils, is to grant the full benefits of citizenship to all loyal men without distinction of color. May God help our beloved land. Mrs S. Jims in kind regards and I subscribe myself
Ever and sincerely your friend  Holmes O. Sleight

&lt;p&gt;Hon R. Yats
Dr Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In response to your request of the 12th Inst. I enclose a list of names of the leading Republicans of our County.  I have humbly made out the list from memory and probably have overlooked some whom I would like have put on the list.  Perhaps I have given you names enough for our County.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;    I think we will make quite a [gain?] on the Democracy this fall and have some hope that we may succeed in electing our Co officers.  I am going to (run?] some of our returned soldiers for the difficult Co offices, to be filled this fall.
    Any other information you may desire in reference to our County I will cheerfully give you at any time when in my [home?]
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Respectfully
J. M. McCord   P. M.
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hon R. Yats
Dr Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In response to your request of the 12th Inst. I enclose a list of names of the leading Republicans of our County.  I have humbly made out the list from memory and probably have overlooked some whom I would like have put on the list.  Perhaps I have given you names enough for our County.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;    I think we will make quite a [gain?] on the Democracy this fall and have some hope that we may succeed in electing our Co officers.  I am going to (run?] some of our returned soldiers for the difficult Co offices, to be filled this fall.
    Any other information you may desire in reference to our County I will cheerfully give you at any time when in my [home?]
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Respectfully
J. M. McCord   P. M.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please find enclosed the list you wish -- it is as full as I can give it without further delay -- some names familiar to you I have omitted for that reason --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not having the addrefs of Col Ferry I take the liberty of enclosing my letter to him --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I received a letter by the last mail from our friend J. H. Reed who formerly edited the Aledo Record he requests me to obtain a house for him as he has purchased an interest in the "Monmouth Atlas" and is coming to take the Editorial Chair on the 1st of September -- The "Atlas" will shake off its lethargy and give some signs of vitality when Reed resumes that "mighty instrument of 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;little men" -- it will not be to the "Monmouth Review" (which is,  if possible more vile than the Chicago Times) a "grey goose quill" but one of well tempered steel whose strokes it will sorely feel and feeling, writhe but writhe in vain -- Reed has been farming for about two years -- is satisfied with the experience and has returned cheerfully to his old vocation --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your Obedt Servt
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;James Henderson

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please find enclosed the list you wish -- it is as full as I can give it without further delay -- some names familiar to you I have omitted for that reason --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not having the addrefs of Col Ferry I take the liberty of enclosing my letter to him --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I received a letter by the last mail from our friend J. H. Reed who formerly edited the Aledo Record he requests me to obtain a house for him as he has purchased an interest in the "Monmouth Atlas" and is coming to take the Editorial Chair on the 1st of September -- The "Atlas" will shake off its lethargy and give some signs of vitality when Reed resumes that "mighty instrument of 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;little men" -- it will not be to the "Monmouth Review" (which is,  if possible more vile than the Chicago Times) a "grey goose quill" but one of well tempered steel whose strokes it will sorely feel and feeling, writhe but writhe in vain -- Reed has been farming for about two years -- is satisfied with the experience and has returned cheerfully to his old vocation --
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your Obedt Servt
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;James Henderson

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Waukegan, Ill. Aug 18th 1865
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Gov.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I enclose you a "string of names" of persons in this County to whom it will do to send Documents. I could,  perhaps, think of more, but I fancy this will be all you will care about this time.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Should there be anything I can do for you at any time you have only to command me. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sincerely your friend
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;James Y. Cory

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Respected Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Herewith enclosed I have the honor to send you a list of Republicans' in this co, made from memory  The list of Jerseyville is large including all or nearly all who vote our tickets  In the other precincts I presume the lists should have been larger but they include all of any prominence. There are in this county many Democrats of the better class who are not satisfied with the course of their party leaders &amp;amp; it seems to me there never was a more propitious time than the present for the diffusion of light. Hoping the lists may prove satisfactory I am with much respect
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fraternally Yours
