<p>Rolla, Missouri,
</p><p>August 21st 1864
</p><p>Colonel John M. Snyder
</p><p>Dear Sir - I have thus far managed to get along first-rate, and have to thank you for the kind interest manifested in my behalf.
</p><p>Rolla is a miserable hole, and I don't think the authorities could have planted us in a worse place, with, perhaps, the exception of that location where dealers in coal have no occasion to pursue their interesting vocation. The health of the Regiment has been very bad - we have lost several by disease. Newton and George Rutledge, however, are as hearty as a couple of bucks, and send their respects and regards to you.
</p><p>The men of the 145th have been greatly disappointed in Colonel Lackey - in
</p>
<hr />
<p>what manner I leave you to surmise. You know that an humble subaltern would be very imprudent to criticise his Colonel too closely.
</p><p>If you see Mackenzie I wish you would tell him, for me, that this hundred day trip would have been a "bully trip" for him. He'd have learned something else besides making money.
</p><p>One thing more, I want to bore you again by asking you as a special favor to request the Governor and Gen. Fuller to grant me permission to raise a company for special State service. I am confident I can raise a <u>full</u> <u>one</u>, composed of good men. I wish you would send me such written authority at your earliest convenience and I will go to work.
</p><p>Hoping that this will be my last
</p>
<hr />
<p>round in Missouri, I subscribe myself
</p><p>Yours truly
</p><p>J. M. Prior
</p><p>P.S. Allow me to congratulate you on the new phase in your existence, and Newt requests me to ask "How much will you give for a substitute?"

</p><p>Gov. Yates
</p><p>Springfield Illinois
</p><p>Dear Sir
</p><p>There are now a number or full companies organized in this county, but still at home waiting orders. A full regiment can be arranged at once and should be lest the men scatter. Some person should be appointed Colonel to perfect an organization at once.

</p><p>Yours Respectfully
</p><p>Jackson Grimshaw
</p><p>Archibald Williams
</p><p>I earnestly recommend the appointment of Mr Dills as Colonel. I think it would be an excellent and acceptable thing
