Aurora Ills Oct 30th 1862 Hon Richd Yates I am somewhat out of sorts in relation to an act of our Adjutant General, Lt Col Joslyn of the 36th Reg left his regiment on the 1st of August last and resigned his commission, since which time he has been busily engaged at work for the Democratic Party. When last in Springfield you informed me that Capt Jenks was to have his place and his commission should issue as soon as notice was received that his resignation was accepted. We believe that Gen Fuller wrote as he told me he would write in relation to it. If he has requested that he should be retained he has done another mean thing. Joslyn received <hr /> his order on Friday last to report to his Regt on Saturday he presided over a Democratic Convention in this County, [then?] Monday he [illegible] from the Paymaster in Chicago over $1200 and at night made a [dirty?] speech for Sherman. He is to make another tomorrow night in Chicago. All of this may be right but we do not see it. I have been in DeKalb County for the past three days and our prospects are bright. Sincerly Yours &c Ira A.W. Buck <hr /> Ira A.W. Buck. Aurora, Ill. Oct. 30. Concerning Lt. Col. Joslyn of 36th Regt; thinks Adjt Gen. Fuller has not done right in not appointing Capt. Jenks to his place: Joslyn has been around making democratic speeches for Sherman &c. &c (File) Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Shawneetown Oct 30. 1862. "His Excellency" Governor Yates Springfield Ills. I hastily write to inform you somewhat of matters pertaining to the object of my mission in south Ills. Upon my arrival in the District, I immediately visited Maj Kuykendall, and delivered you letter, after the perusal of which he informed me that he had withdrawn from the contest, and was no longer a candidate for the Senate. He declines in favor of Green, whom he assures me will "vote for all measures" for the success of the Union cause. Green heartily denounces his former course in the Legislature, pretends to be "unconditional union", and in short promises anything, and everything, if an opportunity is only granted him to redeem his lost character. These are Kuykendall's own expressions to me, and although I have my own misgivings as to Greens future course, we will have to abide the result of the election as Green has now no opposition, and will <hr /> as a matter of course be elected Upon the subject of the Legislature, we have come to this conclusion. The counties of Union, Alexander and Pulaski, will send Smith unconditional "Whangdoodle". Pope, Johnson and Massac, will elect Willis "unconditional War democrat," and who will vote "Yates" for U. S. Senate. Williamson and Jefferson, will send Wm Logan (Genl Logan's brother) whom Kuykendall says can be "gotten right" without doubt. The hardest fight will be in this (my own) Rep Dist, between Lusk and Turner. We are organizing the opposition in view of this, and intend to put Lusk through if money and hard work will do it. I am here to day confering with our excellent friends the Mssrs Peeples & Ridgway, who with their usual energy, ably second all measures designed to promote the good of the cause, by "material aid" and otherwise. Our labors shall not cease until Tuesday night, and though we feel grave doubts as to this county - still we hope Lusk may get it. I returned from Saline yesterday. Our friends there, Dr Mitchell and others, are quite sanguine of carrying the county for Lusk. Lusk thinks <hr /> his chances are best in Hardin. Josh Allen will beat Bartley for congress. His arrest and imprisonment, has made him 2500 votes in the District. Kuykendall thinks so, and he ought to know I think. At Kuykendalls instance I am looking after the matter of tickets for Saline, Gallatin and Hardin, and through Mssrs P & R's assistance have them all supplied. Bartleys tickets for Saline Co were without the names our of candidates for State Officers. I have gotten up new ones and will distribute them tomorrow. Our friends generally are much dissatisfied with Kuykendall for his withdrawl, and great numbers of them decline to vote for Green under any consideration. They hope he'll do right if elected, yet have very little confidence in his professions. I think myself that he is so thoroughly committed that he cannot do otherwise than perform the promises so publicly made. With many expressions of regard and hopes for your ultimate success. I am Your Excellencys Ob't Serv't James R. Loomis. <hr /> James L. Loomis Shawneetown Oct 31 Political prospects in that portion of Egypt - not encouraging.

Wyatt assented,and in furtherance of the arrangement sought an interview with Genl Tuttle in the morning and solicited the command above refered to. the Genl had been apprised before by his spy of all that transpired consequently was prepared to [meet?] it by charging upon Wyatt not Disloyalty but a [want?] Integrity as an officer. he was not under arrest at the time he left but probably would have been had he <hr /> remained to day. my object in writing you the facts are he has gone home or Springfield. and I thought he might have tryed some way to have you Interest yourself for him.

Camp Cairo Nov 2d 1862 To his Excellency Gov Yates Springfield Ills Respected Sir Presuming that the Intent formerly taken in the 101st Morgan County Regiment was unabated I have heretofore taken the liberty to address you and inform you our situation, together with incidents connected therewith, and I again take the same liberty. I wrote you a few days since concerning Lt Col Wyatt. since his departure so suddenly to parts unknown to me I have not heard from him. The Provost Marshall informs me that testimony has accumulated upon him. and in the event the charge first made upon him should not be sustained (which in my Judgment is almost impossible) the matter of leaving his post without permission would cause his discharge from the army inevitable, hence we may reasonably infer that the Regt is minus a Lt Colonel and when the Regular forms are complied with, one will be compelled to be Commissioned and from the Army Rules and Regulations promotions follow in Line "to suit" Major. if no [illegible] succeeds to Lt Colonel and a Captain to the office of Major if agreeable to you and consistent with your Rule I desire you will allow me to suggest the proper person to fill vacancies. I have attended personally to the Regiment and I am more thoroughly informed in reference to the capacities of individuals for office than any other person <hr />in or out of the Regiment. I would suggest Major Newman for the Lt Colonel. and Capt. John Lightfoot for the office of Major. and in making those suggestions I honestly and conscientiously believe that the efficiency and discipline of the Regiment would be promoted. my Command is now under good discipline and progressing rapidly in the Drill and will soon compare favorably with any Regiment in the field. I enlisted in the cause for the good of my country and I every day feel more the importance of sound good Loyal True Patriotic officers. I can heartily endorse the above Named to fill all requirements, hence when appointments are made I much desire that good men will be promoted Agreeable to your suggestion I wrote to the War Department concerning my arms. and received a prompt reply for Genl Ripley Chief of Ordnance. and immediately an Inspector visited our camp and condemed the Guns hence I infer we will be speedily rearmed, with good Guns and if we can be placed under the command of Major John A. McClernand we will be well situated. I wrote you sometime since concerning the appointment of William T. Sutterell to the office of 2d Lieut in Company H. to fill the office in place of Lieut Shelly Wright deceased. an election in the Company was held and the result of it forwarded to your office. and I suppose the matter has been mislaid please have it attended to as speedily as possible and Sir although I have written at great length I hope you will excuse me. but I take the liberty knowing <hr />the great [intent?] you have manifested in our Regiment and from so doing permit me to say that the Regiment are endeared to you by a tie that will not be easily broken. and although lying Democratic politicians may endeavor to make political capital by asserting that the army are opposed to the Presidents Emancipation Proclamation yet I assert that my Regiment endorse it to a man and the further we progress into the field the more determined are we to [use?] any endeavor [or power?] to suppress this infernal Rebellion and I have the sentiment of the Regiment when I say that almost the entire vote of the Command would be cast for Ingersoll on Tuesday next if we were permitted. we are not the Richardson [illegible] Vallandingham Democrats. and if the Lord spare our lives to get back we will show them if we are the miserable [illegible] they represents us to be. but I must stop and ask your pardon. for so long a Letter. hope you will excuse me with Great Respect Charles H. Fox <hr />101st Regt. Col. Chas. H. Fox. Cairo Nov. 2nd. The case of the Lt. Col. (Wyatt) again -- will undoubtedly be thrown out. recommends Maj. Newman for Lt. Col. & Capt.
