Mrs A. E Ferguson

Madam:

Your letter of the 23rd inst is received. In reply, I am directed to inform you that the Governor has no authority to discharge your husband from the service of the United States. Upon application to the Surgeon in charge of the hospital where he is confined he will be examined and if found permanently unfit for duty, he will be discharged in due time.

Respectfully

Simon Hirschbach

Secretary
