Cobden Station I.C. R.R.

Aug 31st 1862

Major Genl J.A. McClernand

Sir = Since I have seen you I have canvassed this section of country & find that a cavalry co can be raised upon a much shorter notice than I spoke of when you was here. And if you can get them received, will have them ready mounted for active service, in 10 days time from notice. I wish to be received for the War to serve anywhere & in any capacity that I may be assigned.

Very Respectfully

Your obt “Servt”

F. Evans
