Galesburg Ills Apr 19th 1862 Dear Governor I have just seen for the first time a copy of the corespondence between the committee of the late Constitutional Convention and my brother Eugene. I have also just seen a copy of the corespondence between yourself and my brother. I wonder that you did not mention the subject while we were together. I assure you that I knew nothing about it. I hasten to say that I disapprove in toto of the course pursued by him and that I have just written him to this effect. I regard his conduct as entirely unjustifyable and almost inexcusable. If the convention had possessed the power to have rendered his regiment any service whatsoever, his conduct would have appeared more reasonable. I hope for my sake that you will say no more on the subject than is neccessary. I wish however that you would show this letter to those officers associated with you in the administration of public afairs in all of whom I have the greatest confidence. Further than this please to regard this letter as confidencial. Truly Yours Clark E Carr Govnr Richard Yates <hr /> Clark E. Carr Galesburg April 19 His brothers letter to the Convention. Write me a good letter to Carr, saying that I thank him, & that I did not mention to him because it was not pleasant to me as I knew it would make him feel bad.

(Confidencial) Galesburg Ill Feby 15th 1863 Dear Governor We are expecting you up here some time this week as you promised to come Mr and Mrs Dunn write in requesting you to come - should you do so and I beg of you that you will you will be entertained as well as possible in a great place like this I hope that you will have started before this reaches your Henry would I think like the school here and it is just such a quiet place as boys of his age ought to be educated in The condition of this State is very alarming - Unwise men on all sides of the political questions seem to be doing all in their power to stir up the people to achieve <hr /> Civil War - I think that there is great danger - From my acquaintance with you you must know that I am not an alarmist - I am not disposed to cry out until there is some real danger - I believe that the time of danger has really come - I hope and pray that it is not so and that I am mistaken but my convictions are so strong that I now beg of you to have placed in some way in your own hands such power as will enable you as the Executive to immediately suppress any insurrection to punish or disobedience of the laws in the most [illegible] manner - I am told there is a county adjoining this (and I get my information from a reliable source) that several hundred men assembled armed to the teeth as if by no previous concert. and drove the negroes out of the county seat - secret meetings are being held all over this section of country --- of course <hr /> the negroes have no right here under our laws and of course the people have a right to have secret meetings and to bear arms and I would be the last one to question these rights but this action proved something It proved that there is organization and concerted [action?] - The negroes if to be driven out should be driven out by prosecution and under the laws - The fact of organization and that arms are in the hands of these men who propose to forcibly compel the government to recognize the rebels is sufficient to convince me that there is danger I do not wish to be understood to attribute the wrong to any one political party - I believe that it is necessary that something be done Do not understand that I think these extreme measures should be used against persons who do not commit serious overt acts or who do not forcibly seek to resist the government or get up an insurrection - can you not lay the whole facts before the authorities at Washington or Genl Wright. and prepare yourself for emergency immediately - Please excuse me for saying so much. I know that this subject has not been overlooked by you cherishing as I know you do so much affection for our noble state and for our whole country. Please excuse me for saying so much. Truly your friend, Clark E. Carr <hr /> Clark E Carr Galesburgh Feby 15th 1863 Hopes the Gov will not fail to visit his place, says they will try to entertain him in good style.

(Confidencial) Galesburg Ill Feby 15th 1863 Dear Governor We are expecting you up here some time this week as you promised to come Mr and Mrs Dunn write in requesting you to come - should you do so and I beg of you that you will you will be entertained as well as possible in a great place like this I hope that you will have started before this reaches your Henry would I think like the school here and it is just such a quiet place as boys of his age ought to be educated in The condition of this State is very alarming - Unwise men on all sides of the political questions seem to be doing all in their power to stir up the people to achieve <hr /> Civil War - I think that there is great danger - From my acquaintance with you you must know that I am not an alarmist - I am not disposed to cry out until there is some real danger - I believe that the time of danger has really come - I hope and pray that it is not so and that I am mistaken but my convictions are so strong that I now beg of you to have placed in some way in your own hands such power as will enable you as the Executive to immediately suppress any insurrection to punish or disobedience of the laws in the most [illegible] manner - I am told there is a county adjoining this (and I get my information from a reliable source) that several hundred men assembled armed to the teeth as if by no previous concert. and drove the negroes out of the county seat - secret meetings are being held all over this section of country --- of course <hr /> the negroes have no right here under our laws and of course the people have a right to have secret meetings and to bear arms and I would be the last one to question these rights but this action proved something It proved that there is organization and concerted [action?] - The negroes if to be driven out should be driven out by prosecution and under the laws - The fact of organization and that arms are in the hands of these men who propose to forcibly compel the government to recognize the rebels is sufficient to convince me that there is danger I do not wish to be understood to attribute the wrong to any one political party - I believe that it is necessary that something be done Do not understand that I think these extreme measures should be used against persons who do not commit serious overt acts or who do not forcibly seek to resist the government or get up an insurrection - can you not lay the whole facts before the authorities at Washington or Genl Wright. and prepare yourself for emergency immediately - Please excuse me for saying so much. I know that this subject has not been overlooked by you cherishing as I know you do so much affection for our noble state and for our whole country. Please excuse me for saying so much. Truly your friend, Clark E. Carr <hr /> Clark E Carr Galesburgh Feby 15th 1863 Hopes the Gov will not fail to visit his place, says they will try to entertain him in good style. Thinks the school there a good place for Henry, and refers to the present political state of affairs in his portion of the state. File Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
