Harrisburgh July 2d 1863 Hon Richard Yates Dear Sir. From what I see in the Evansville Journal of the 27th 1863 Your Hon has offered ten thousand troops to repell invasion to the Sec of War. if that offer is accepted and the troops are to be raised by Voluntary Enlistment,I wish you would give me authority to raise a company in this and adjoining Counties. I have been in the Service but was discharged on account of my health at that time. My health is good now and I am anxious to serve my Country either in the Invalid Corps or in Volunteer service to repel invasion as a Commissioned Officer in either service. I think my previous Service as 1st Serg. in the Company being well acquainted with Military tactics entitles me to a more important position. The disease I was afflicted with is liable to return from exposure. But I apprehend no danger in attending to the duties of Capt. or Lieutenant. If you think proper to appoint me an Officer in Invalid Company I will respond to the call at any time. I am a friend to the administration a Member of the Union League, I am also a Master Mason and I am informed by the Trowel you delight to render M Ms all the assistance you can <hr /> consistently with the Dignity of Your Office. I have been trying to get into the service again for 12 months or more. But as a private or non commissioned Officer cannot. so if I render any further service to my County in its defence it must be by appointment. I refer you to Hon Col Olney of Sawneetown as reference as to qualifications morality Integrity &C. We are doing Land Office Business in the Union League and from observation I think we can carry this County in 64.

Crawford M.D. of St Charles, in said county, during ten of more years last passed, and with pleasure states that the moral and gentlemanly deportment of the Dr stand unimpeachable, and that as a physician and surgeon his acqurements and skill may well be ranked as of a superior order, and such as would prove creditable to the medical department of the army. The undersigned therefore respectfully suggests that Dr. Crawford may, with great propriety, be referred to Professor Johnson, President of the Board of Medical Examiners of this State as a candidate for a situation (over) <hr /> in the medical department of the army, and at the request of Dr. Crawford the undersigned hereby respectfully requests that Your Excellency will refer him to the Medical Board for examination as surgeon of a regiment, to which situation he informs me that he is now conditionally appointed, and only awaits an examination before the said Board and their certificate of qualification. I remain, Your Excellency very Obt Humble Servt Daniel Eastman. P.S. Please direct the order (if granted) to Prof Johnson Chicago forthwith if possible Respectfully H M Crawford MD. <hr /> Danl.
