Dear Sir, </p><p>I have recently learned that my friends here- by petition, have asked your influence in securing for me a Chaplaincy in the army. It occured to me that they were rather indefinite, as they did not name any Col, or regiment to whom or which they wanted you to apply. I would therefore suggest that you use your influence first with Col Sloane of Chicago. Mr Owen Lovejoy I believe has a paper similar to the one you </p> <hr /> <p>received &amp; has promised to use his influence in the Same direction. I am not particular, however, what regiment I go into, or where I am called. I would prefer a Hospital to the field so far as comfort is concerned, but am willing to serve my Country any where. </p><p>If you consider the papers forwarded you a sufficient recomendation. you may consider me a Candidate for the post of Chaplaincy at any time &amp; place one may be wanted. </p><p>I am Sir, </p><p>Most respectfully yours, </p><p>J.
