Youngs Point La May 19th 1863 Hon J K Dubois Springfield Ill Dear Sir Knowing your willingness to lend assistance in any way you can to Illinois sons in the field, I shall presume a little on my acquaintance with you to address you on a matter of considerable interest to the second assistant surgeon of our Regiment Daniel Berry. - he is a Brother in Law of mine, and of course I feel aside from other considerations an interest in his success - our First assistant surgeon has been detached from us for several months - and for some time past our surgeon has been at home and the whole care of the Hospital & our sick has devolved on Dr Berry - and I am sure he has rendered general satisfaction - He got the appointment of assistant surgeon at the time of the organization of the Regt and got an order from Gov Yates to the Board of Medical Examiners to be examined they were so engaged at the time they could not attend to it - but promised they would notify him soon to meet them - and directed that he should go to the Regt in the meantime where he has been ever since - a period of nine months - at the time he got an <hr /> order for examinations from Gov Yates he went to Chicago to meet the Board, at of course considerable expense to himself - without accomplishing anything - since then he has heard nothing from the Board although he has written to them on the subject of the Examination several times - He has yet received no commission from the Gov. The commissions of all the other officers of the Regt bear date Oct 3 1862. It seems to me under the circumstances his commission ought to be issued also - If the Board were to order him before them now we could not let him go, as the Regt really needs his services - I have but a bare acquaintance with Gov Yates, and I desire under the circumstances, if you feel that you can consistently with your duty to the service use your influence with the Gov to have his commission issued, and forwarded to him at this place, Berry used to live in your county Lawrence, and I am well satisfied he is in every way fully competent to fill the position he has now held with credit to himself for the last nine months Your attention to the above request will place under lasting obligations Your friend truly John M Crels Lt Col 87th Regt Ill Vols <hr /> Crels John W Military A.G.O. [illegible] June 1. 63- Respectfully returned - Dr. Danl Berry was mustered as 2nd Asst Surg Oct 3. 62, but not commissioned, as he never passed the Medical Board, altho a permit has been issued to him for his examination - A vacancy yet exists and another permit can be sent if desired - A certificate from the Med. Board is required before commission can issue - D.L. Gold Asst Adj Genl Rect Ex O.

St Louis Marine Hospital May 20th 1863 To his Excellency Richard Yates. Governor of Illinois Dear Sir I wrote to you a few days ago (During your absence) asking you to have me transferred to the Marine Hospital Chicago it being the nearest my home in Illinois. And I am happy to say that I received an answer from our Excellent Lieut Governor, stating that a transfer could not be made unless there were 40 or more applicants. And I learn from our Surgeon here that they must have certificates proving that they have been off of duty and under treatment for three months. I have a certificate from our Regimental Surgeon which is approved by O. B. Payne <hr /> our Division Surgeon showing that I have been under treatment since the First of February. For Organic Disease of the Liver. Hemorhage of the Peretoneal sack & Dropsey. The Surgeon here calls it the same and thinks it doubtfull about Me getting well, Under these circumstances I think it is not right or justice to keep me 3 months more here waiting till a sufficient number can be had to transfer. Therefore I as a Husband and a father make this appeal to your excellency and humbly beg you to use your power and influence to get me transfered, or furloughed, or anything else to Ill, where my wife and child can visit me. I do not expect to ever be able for duty,or work, and the only pleasure I ever expect to have is the enjoyment of my wife and daughter. If there is help for the Widow's son, with all confidence in your excellency, knowing your willingness and abilities to promote the <hr /> interest and welfare of your troops I close feeling assured that my request will not be passed unheeded or uncared for. I am Fraternally your Humble Servant Geo. W. Flick First Sergt Co H. 93d Ill Vol <hr /> George W Flick File "F" Marine Hospital St Louis May 20 1863. Wrote a few days ago asking to be transferred to the Marine Hospital Chicago. Was informed that the transfer could not be made in squads less than 40. Says he will never be fit for duty again - and earnestly requests that he may be transferred. Recd Ex O. May 21 1863. Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

St Louis Marine Hospital May 20th 1863 To his Excellency Richard Yates. Governor of Illinois Dear Sir I wrote to you a few days ago (During your absence) asking you to have me transferred to the Marine Hospital Chicago it being the nearest my home in Illinois. And I am happy to say that I received an answer from our Excellent Lieut Governor, stating that a transfer could not be made unless there were 40 or more applicants. And I learn from our Surgeon here that they must have certificates proving that they have been off of duty and under treatment for three months. I have a certificate from our Regimental Surgeon which is approved by O. B. Payne <hr /> our Division Surgeon showing that I have been under treatment since the First of February. For Organic Disease of the Liver. Hemorhage of the Peretoneal sack & Dropsey. The Surgeon here calls it the same and thinks it doubtfull about Me getting well, Under these circumstances I think it is not right or justice to keep me 3 months more here waiting till a sufficient number can be had to transfer. Therefore I as a Husband and a father make this appeal to your excellency and humbly beg you to use your power and influence to get me transfered, or furloughed, or anything else to Ill, where my wife and child can visit me. I do not expect to ever be able for duty,or work, and the only pleasure I ever expect to have is the enjoyment of my wife and daughter. If there is help for the Widow's son, with all confidence in your excellency, knowing your willingness and abilities to promote the <hr /> interest and welfare of your troops I close feeling assured that my request will not be passed unheeded or uncared for. I am Fraternally your Humble Servant Geo. W. Flick First Sergt Co H. 93d Ill Vol <hr /> George W Flick File "F" Marine Hospital St Louis May 20 1863. Wrote a few days ago asking to be transferred to the Marine Hospital Chicago. Was informed that the transfer could not be made in squads less than 40. Says he will never be fit for duty again - and earnestly requests that he may be transferred. Recd Ex O. May 21 1863. Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
