Richard Yates, I deem the following to be due to you: As soon as I had returned to this city in March last, I paid off a balance of $319.52 due on The Press on which “The Post” newspaper is worked. Shortly after, I was attacked by a fever with typhoid symptoms – the third attack within four months – and acting with advice of my physician I determined to quit the establishment. I had been engaged in it fourteen months. My proposition to Mr. Sheehan was, to take $800 for my service (I was an equal partner with Sheehan & Mottison) during and for the time of my <hr /> connection with it, and give to them freely and without pecuniary consideration my entire interest in The Press and every other item and species of property. My proposition was accepted. $800 is all the money I every received out of the business as it progresses, and from my partners on having them. And, as I have already said, I paid off the balance due on The Press-- for which my name was alone liable, as the title to the property was in me –and then deeded all to S. & M. without any consideration, other than a merely nominal one, for legal form's sake.

Head Quarters 2nd Ills. Cavalry Tornton Tenn Aug 5th 1862 Hon Richard Yates Governor of Illinois Dear Sir About one year ago I had the honor to be commissioned by you as surgeon of the 2nd Illinois Cavalry, and since that date I have been constantly at my post, discharging its duties without the loss of a single day. From motives of a purely professional nature I desire to exchange my position in the Cavalry, to an infantry Regiment and make this application in the hope that you may be able to further my wishes, by appointing me to some one of the new Infantry Regiments about being organized for the war. My lengthened military experience would be of some value to a new regiment, and the Ass Surgeon Dr A.J. Crain having passed examination before the medical board of the state, is fully competent to be appointed Surgeon in my place. As a considerable number of new surgeons will be required under recent call, I trust you may be able to take this application under consideration; and if proper in your view, commission me to one of the new Regiments. I refer you to the enclosed letter, and also to those of the late major Applington and others, left on file in the State Dept one year since and remain with very great respect Your Obt Servt Jo B. Cutts Surgeon 2nd Ills. Cavalry <hr /> 2nd Cav. Sept 8, Thornton Tenn Aug 5/62 Has been surgeon for 2nd Ills Cav for the last year and now asks to be transferred to some Infantry Regt.
