Chicago, August 23d 1862 Dear Sir, When the new levy was ordered, I applied to you for a Colonelcy in one of the new Regiments; but I presume, under the arrangements then adopted, you could not consistently comply with my request; and hence I have not heard from that application. At the earnest instance of my son, Calvin Gurley Wilson, I beg leave to request for him, an appointment as Regimental Quarter Master, to one of the three years Regiments; and therefore withdraw the application made by me for Colonelcy. This son married a niece of Col Hamilton, formerly of this City, now deceased; and though he enjoys a good position, he is willing and anxious to go into service, though thereby he should be compelled to part, for a time at least, from his young wife, and infant son. He is every way qualified for the position he seeks, and if appointed, will render good and efficient service. I should not have made this application, supposing that all the officers of these Regiments, would be elected; but today I learned that this is not uniformly the case, but that at least one appointment to a Colonelcy has been made, where the individual was not elected by the Company officers. I therefore beg leave to submit this application, and respectfully request your decision on it may be communicated to me. Should it be successful, I will feel under great obligations for it; and yet, if it had not been for his urgent entreaty, I should not certainly have annoyed you with this application, in view of the fact, that every one, heretofore made by me, since the Republican party has been in power, has been invariably refused. I rendered every service in my power, to secure the success of that party, and these uniform refusals are any <hr /> any thing but gratifying, especially when favors are showered upon those who devoted every effort to the defeat of that party. I know it is the fashion now to ignore parties; such was the case in electing Delegates to our State Constitutional Convention, and there we had striking evidence of the effects of this policy. However, I now ask this small favor, and if it be your pleasure to grant it, I shall be under great obligations; and if not, my son will have to cool down his patriotism, and retain his present position. With great respect, Your obt Servt John Wilson Box 3858 His Excy, R Yates, Gov of Illinois, Springfield <hr /> John Wilson Chicago Aug 23/62 Withdraws his application for Colonel & asks the appointment of Regt Quarter Master in one of the three years Regts for his son Calvin G.

Potter of the "Cincinnati Commercial" desires to open a business house here, but in order to do so, he will be under the necessity of visiting Washington City to endeavor to obtain a permit. H. H. Potter is the man for whom I Clerked at the time our national troubles commenced, he was at the time a Firm Union man, has remained so during all the troubles, and is now & ever will be devoted to the Union Cause. He continued in business here until the Confederates closed him up. He now desires to commence business again and in order to do so, he is informed by the "Powers that be", that he will have to obtain a permit from Washington City of the parties authorized to grant the same. If he gets the permit, he will give me a good situation. Now Wes I desire you to get from the Governor a letter of introduction, to the President for him,---stating the facts as above mentioned. I mean in substance.---I don't know who the parties are who <hr /> are authorized to issue permits to trade, but I presume you do or can ascertain, and if you can get a letter to them also, it will be so much the better. he expects to have a letter from Gov "Andy Johnson" and leaves here in a few days for Nashville to "have an interview with him." Wes, you will confer a great favor upon me if you attend to this matter promptly, and should you succed, you will please send the letter or letters addressed as follows at the earliest possible moment---"H. H. Potter care of M. D. Potter Cincinnati Ohio" and if he is not there the letters will be forwarded to him at Washington City. I will vouch for all I have said for Mr Potter in this letter, and no man runs any risk in giving him the letters I request for him. I have got some Cotton speculations under way and hope to make something handsome unless "something turns up" to prevent, of which I have no knowledge at present, but I will not suffer myself to be too sanguine as there is always a chance for a "slip between the cup & the lip" Please write me your success in this matter for Potter. I am aware it will give you some trouble but who can you ask a favor of if not a friend. Please inform Father & my wife that I am well &c &c.

I will vouch for all I have said for Mr Potter in this letter, and no man runs any risk in giving him the letters I request for him. I have got some Cotton speculations under way and hope to make something handsome unless "something turns up" to prevent, of which I have no knowledge at present, but I will not suffer myself to be too sanguine as there is always a chance for a "slip between the cup & the lip" Please write me your success in this matter for Potter. I am aware it will give you some trouble but who can you ask a favor of if not a friend. Please inform Father & my wife that I am well &c &c. Don't fail to write me & oblige---"The Union for Ever"---Yours Truly John C. Grierson <hr /> John C Grierson Memphis Aug 23/62 To Friend Wesley.

Bk 14: Y 12 Quarter-Master General's Office, Washington City, Aug 23 1862 Hon. Richard Yates. Govr of Illinois Springfield, Ills. Sir: Your letter of the 15th August, relative to the contracts for clothing for Illinois troops, has been referred to this office by the Secretary of War. You state that the withdrawal of more than one hundred thousand of the citizens of Illinois, has, by decreasing the demand for ready made clothing, occasioned much pecuniary suffering among the employees of some of your largest manufacturers, and suggest that contracts for at least <hr /> 25,000 full uniforms be given to parties in your state. This subject has engaged the attention of the Qr. Mr. General, who has sent to Capt. J. A. Potter (at Chicago) chief Quarter Master in the State of Illinois, the cloth to make up the uniforms for the Illinois contingent of militia, with instructions to enter into contracts if possible, for the making up of these clothes, in the State. I have also authorized him to procure largely of other supplies, such as can be purchased or manufactured in the State or its neighborhood, but not to enter Eastern markets, or the Cincinnati market, and compete with the agents of the United States who are authorized to contract and purchase in those markets. <hr /> Any suggestion from your excellency to aid in this or to distribute, without prejudice to the United States, more generally and equitably the expenditures of the Government, will be gladly received by the Qr. Mr. Genl. It is not thought proper to have too many contracting & purchasing agents in a State, as they compete against each other and raise prices. It is therefore considered best to keep this work in each of the States, under the direction of one officer, and Capt. Potter has been selected for that purpose in Illinois. I am Very Respectfully Yr. Obt. Servt. M C Meigs Qr. Mr. General <hr /> M. C. Meigs Q. M. General Washington, Aug. 23. Acknowledges Gov's letter of 15th; says 25,000 full informs are given to parties in Ill. and cloth has been forwarded to Capt.
