To His Excellency
Gov. Yates
Sir,
I am desirous of obtaining a situation in the army, I was eight years in the Prussian army, occupying the position as 2nd Lieutenant. I have all the necessary vouchers from the commanding officers of the regiment & battalion to which I belonged. I was in an Infantry brigade.
Please inform me if there is any position for me. Your Truly
William Geilhausen.
