Hd Qrts 100th Illinois Vols Louden Tenn Feby 16th 1864 Hon Richard Yates, Dear Sir The Governor of the state of Ohio having made application, parties are being sent home to recruit for the regiments raised under the July call of 1862. Cannot such an arrangement be made for the Illinois regiments? All the Illinois regiments raised under that call need need filling up. Mine has now an aggregate of less than 500 men and having been Entirely raised in one County (Will) the people of that county feeling an interest in it which they do not in any other, I am confident that recruits could be obtained for it when they could not for any other. I have made repeated attempts to have a recruiting party for this regiment detailed but the reply always is that War Department has not <hr /> ordered any such details from the New regiments and so I Expect that none will be made unless upon your application. Is there no way of compelling the payment of the full 40 cts per day for subsisting, as promised in Order 77? Upon one pretext and another the payment of some of the bills incurred for subsisting the recruits of this regiment has been put off to this day, while others have been compelled to submit to the cutting down of their accounts one fourth. Most of these bills were contracted for the subsistence of the men after the regiment had been ordered to assemble at Joliet and and when, as no preparation had been made for their subsistence by the Government, had not Messers Caswell, Austin, Prince and others subsisted the men, they would have been obliged to return to their homes and the towns from whence they came and the order of the Adjutant General could not have been complied with. Every County Officer, and every hotel Keeper <hr /> in Will County will certify that at that time it was utterly impossible to get men subsisted for a less sum. Yet these parties are today without their pay or save Mr Prince have been compelled to receive 30 instead of 40 cts. The Act of so cutting down the bills is nothing more or less than an act of repudiation. Provost Marshal Longworth was obliged to pledge his private Credit in order to get men subsisted at Joliet for since their experience in /62 the people there are not ready to trust in the faith of the Government. The matter is a small but so flagrant is the injustice of the transaction that if there is no other way to reach it Congress should. With Great respect Your Obedient servant A. N. Waterman Lt. Col 100th Ills Vols <hr /> Waterman A N Lieut Col 100th Regt Louden Tenn Feby 1664 Wishes the Governor to make application to War Dept for permission to send home recruiting parties for the Regt raised under the July Call 1862.

If the wants of the State so far as my Department is concerned, are supplied by me it does not prevent you from appointing as many agents, as you may deem proper, to see that the Illinois troops are properly cared for no matter where they may be stationed & their agents would be of great assistance in furthering the objects of the Federal Government. I am willing to take the contracts, that have been made by the State, for all Quartermaster supplies, through Q.M. General [Ward?] presuming them to be reasonable & in compliance with regulations, this remark more particularly applies to the clothing contract as I have personally examined the clothing & find it up to the Army standard. I will also take the supplies on hand, if good enough for the troops, paying for them what the State paid, and I am further willing to send the supplies wherever you may desire and would be pleased if you sent your own agents with them to see that your wishes <hr /> are complied with. The duties of my department are particularly specified in paragraphs 1064-65 of the revised regulations. I beg your Excellency to understand that I recommend the transfer of the Q.M.

Quarter-masters Office Springfield Ill Dec 11, 61 To His Excellency Richard Yates Gov. Illinois Dr Sir; I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 9th inst. It is contrary to the wishes of the authorities at Washington that this state should continue to act for the U.S. when the latter has her own appointed agents. I cannot consent that the state authorities should continue the control of my Department in its most important branch leaving to me duties of minor importance. If you desire to conduct the Dept in one branch you must do so in all. The course heretofore pursued by me has the warm approval of my superiors to whom your letter <hr /> will be referred. No contracts or purchases made by the state since you were last informed of my readiness to assume control of the Q. M. Dept. will be recognized by me. Respy yr obt servt. (signed) A. R. Eddy A. Q.

Dec 20, 61 To His Excellency Richard Yates Gov of Illinois Dear Sir As my personal relations with you and your subordinates in the state Department have thus far been of the most friendly character I regret that our official differences, as representatives of the Federal & state Governments respectively, should have given rise to a newspaper discussion I knew nothing of it until I saw last evening a newspaper slip sent to me from Springfield Whatever I have done has been from a sense of duty to the General Government and I have no doubt that you have been actuated by equally honorable motives.
