&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am informed that you have or are about to have more prisoners on your hands. As perhaps the Barracks here are more comfortable 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;than elsewhere, and the causes of apprehension of which I spoke to you when in St. Louis, are now removed, more prisoners might be
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sent to your camp here if you desire. The accommodations here are and pronounced" very good
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very Respectfully, 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rich. Yates

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hon. Richard Yates
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mr. Loping is anxious to do full justice to your state in his forthcoming "History of the Rebellion", and would be glad to receive any documents or other material bearing upon the subject 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mr. Everett has been kind enough to commend the work, and I should esteem it a great favor if you could concur with his letter.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With great regard, truly yours
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Geo. W. Childs
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mr. Moses - Please write a nice letter as he requests &amp;amp; hand these papers back to me.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Letter written.
&lt;/p&gt;
