Richard Yates to T. W. Hutchinson

Oct 12th. [186]4.

T W. Hutchinson A M

Louisville Clay Co. Ills

Dear Sir:

Replying to your letter

of the 29 ulto. I would say that every effort possible is being made to have all soldiers who are not on duty home to vote at the approaching election. I hope the efforts will be successful and that "Egypt" will by a large majority prove her fidelity to the Union cause.

Very Respectfully

Richd Yates

Governor
