Golconda, Ills Feby 27, 1862 Gov. Richard Yates Dear Sir. By the death of the late Col Thomas H Smith who fell at Fort Donelson while gallantly fighting in defence of the Union a vacancy has occurred in the office of States attorney in this 19th Judicial District. As the Spring term of our courts will soon commence, I suggest to your Excellency the propriety of appointing some competent person to fill the place. I am informed there are two gentlemen in the District who would like to have the office. There may be and doubtless are more. I refer to William H Green the law partner of the late Col Smith, and George W Neely who has partially attended to the duties of the office since last fall. Aside from any political objections which your Excellency may have to Mr Green, I do not hesitate to say that he would make a most excellent officer. I believe him to be better qualified for the place than any other man in the district who may want it. But I do not wish your Excellency to infer that I am pressing upon you the appointment of a man whose political views differ from your own. I only speak as to his qualifications.
