Dear Sir: I am informed that Mr William M Deweese of the 101st Regt Illinois Vols is wounded very severely and will not probably recover for some time. I would respectfully and earnestly request that he be examined for discharge and discharged if possible. his family are in a destitute condition, and I deem this a case worthy of your attention. If not found a proper subject for discharge please grant him a furlough to go home, or a transfer to Genl Hospital in Illinois. Please send me
