June 17th [186]4.
Mr. John R Miller.
Arenzville Ills.
Dear Sir:
I am in receipt of your letter of 17th just. No recruiting commissions are issued by State authority and I am sorry that it is not in my power to offer you a good situation. There is no service now conducted by the State for War or Civil purposes offering places or inducements for any one. There is no law in force which authorizes payment to any officers now employed by the State Military Dept. and I could not therefore pay [illegible] if I had a place
Truly Yours
