Richard Yates to W.G. Greene

Feby 4th [186]2

W.G. Greene Esqr

Petersburg Ills

My Dear Sir;

Your letter in regard to our friend Rourke came during my absence at Washington and was placed in a package which I had not been able to examine until now. Had I been at home I assure you I would have done all in my power to procure his election. I have a high regard for him, and would be glad to serve him at any time.

Yours very Truly.

Richd Yates.
