Dear Sir.
Your letter of the 10th inst requesting my aid in procuring the return of your brother a prisoner at Camp Morton Ind. is received. As I have no authority to act in such cases I have forwarded your letter to Col Wm Hoffman Commissary Genl of Prisoners with request that he give it early attention and will inform you of his action when I hear from him. I hope the request will be granted
Very Respectfully
Richd Yates
