Needs Review Transcription A written representation of a document or a page. Galesburg Sept 30th 62 Gov Yates Yesterday I met Amos Babcock of Canton, who felt that he had been treated very badly, said it was costing him from 20 to 50$ pr Recruit to fill his Reg when you had promised him the Comp Says “Gen F. told him the Companies were there & he had arranged to set them of to fill 7 respective Reg but you objected, & had them organized into a Reg to favor an old “Pet” "Niles or Miles" He again arranged with Gen Catchum for a Comp & that was fugled away from him. On the whole he thinks you State House folks a pretty hard set & intimated that he had quite a mind to defeat my nomination or if nominated election. I was sorry to find him in such a humor. I hope you will improve the first opportunity to set it right. If Gen. F. is playing the kind of game indicated from B-s remarks & from all <hr /> I hear from other quarters, I should think it was possible he may have grown to a size or two larger than his Breeches making it difficult for him to avoid showing his ---- apendix. I am told that a Captain in Col McMurtry's Reg is very sick, and probably will not be able to go into service (Capt King) should a vacancy happen there can not you find it consistent to appoint Mr Blossom to the vacancy. Blossom was appointed & mustered in as 1st leut by Gen Fuller of this Comp. but through some Shenanigan was finally compelled to resign in favor of one [Conger?] Gov Hoffman can tell you all about it. Also Secy Hatch. I hope you will consider his claims carefully before you decide the matter should the vacancy occur. I saw McMurtry men in Dress Parade Sunday, they are a fine Body of men & have a good set of line officers. Suppose they will get those old muskets as Babcock calls them. Yours Truly Geo J. Bergen <hr /> Geo. J. Bergen Galesburg Sept. 30/62 Amos Babcock of Canton, says he has been treated badly, would it not be well to fix him up in some shape, rather than to have him “trying to defeat certain things” hears that a captain in McMurtry Regt is sick, hopes if there is a vacancy you will give it to Blossom.

To his Excellency Gov Yates. Sir: You may be surprised at a stranger's addressing you, but my son, who was formerly employed in Bloomington, Ill, left a lucrative situation to enter the army one year ago. His employer was named Haines, a prominent grocer in B. He is Corporal in the Fifth Ill Cavalry Company Capt Withers, now at Helena, Arkansas. By his enlisting in that State, I am fully aware that I am entitled to no bounty or assistance from Ill. I have been a widow for a number of years and have supported myself by my needle; and I ask if it is in your power, if you see the justice of the case, if you will let me know if I could through your assistance recieve any benefit from your State. Will you be so kind as to answer, and address Mrs Moses C. Grant, Dedham, Mass. My other son is in the navy, and I have <hr /> derived no help from him. I can give you ample evidence that I need the assistance sought for. If agreeable to you, will you please answer this the earliest opportunity, and much oblige yours, very Respectfully, Mrs Grant. Dedham, Mass, Sept 29th 1862 <hr /> Oct 3 Mrs. Moses C Grant Dedham Mass. Sept 29/62 Says her son is a member of the 5th Ill Cavalry.

To his Excellency Gov Yates. Sir: You may be surprised at a stranger's addressing you, but my son, who was formerly employed in Bloomington, Ill, left a lucrative situation to enter the army one year ago. His employer was named Haines, a prominent grocer in B. He is Corporal in the Fifth Ill Cavalry Company Capt Withers, now at Helena, Arkansas. By his enlisting in that State, I am fully aware that I am entitled to no bounty or assistance from Ill. I have been a widow for a number of years and have supported myself by my needle; and I ask if it is in your power, if you see the justice of the case, if you will let me know if I could through your assistance recieve any benefit from your State. Will you be so kind as to answer, and address Mrs Moses C. Grant, Dedham, Mass. My other son is in the navy, and I have <hr /> derived no help from him. I can give you ample evidence that I need the assistance sought for. If agreeable to you, will you please answer this the earliest opportunity, and much oblige yours, very Respectfully, Mrs Grant. Dedham, Mass, Sept 29th 1862 <hr /> Oct 3 Mrs. Moses C Grant Dedham Mass. Sept 29/62 Says her son is a member of the 5th Ill Cavalry.

The Allotments for the 26th Regt Ill Volunteers were received by me, from the pay-department, on the 10th of September, together with Allotments of other Regiments, all of which were distributed between that time and the 14th, as rapidly as two clerks could make out drafts for each individual Allotment. The delay in payments is in the hands of the pay department, and I am assured by the paymasters that it is unavoidable. I wish to call your attention to the claims of the 78th Regiment now near Louisville Ky, who were moved without receiving their Bounty. <hr /> I have been with them and from personal acquaintance with the circumstances of some and the complaints of others I am satisfied that a large number have left their families without a dollar upon which to subsist. When in Louisville I called on the Officer at the head of bounty claims asking that the Regiment be paid The answer received was that "If payments are made to Ill. troops it it would be to the detriment of the interests of Kentucky troops," and he declined to pay My application to him was made by request of Col Bennison, who also Telegraphed to Gov Yates at Springfield on the subject but had not received any answer when I left.

Louisville, Ky Sept 28th 1862 ` To His Excellency Governor Yates Governor: May I presume to ask your influence towards procuring for me the appointment of Brigadier General of Volunteers. For the last twelve months I have commanded from two thousand to seven thousand troops. I am now in command of a Brigade in Buell's army. I have served the country faithfully for twelve years in the Indian country and during this rebellion. During the last year I have seen my juniors in the Army and citizens promoted over me in great numbers. Many of these have done far less in our cause than I have done. The troops under my command are now and long have been desirous that I should be a Brigadier General. As it is probable that I shall be permanently in command of a Brigade, it is but just that <hr /> that I should have the corresponding rank. It is also demanded by justice to my Regiment (the 38th Ills Infty) that it should have a Colonel in command of it & an officer competent to command it. Here I see the new Regiments from our noble and patriotic state pouring in in great numbers, but not a General officer from that state to command them. Although we are all American citizen and American soldiers it seems to me that a state that has done so much for the cause and has suffered so severely, should be more highly honored in the appointment of Generals. Governor, if you can give me your assistance in this matter, I shall be deeply obliged to you, whether the effort be successful or not. Truly yours W.P. Carlin Col 38th Ills Vols <hr /> 38th Regt.
