Cavalry, "Governors Legion" We have seven hundred & fifty good and loyal men, stout able bodied and anxious to do service for the Stars and Stripes. These men are disheartened, paralised - likely to be disbanded, because we have an imbecile, malignant old man for Colonel. We cannot procure arms, but a are thwarted by him in every attempt to benefit the Regiment. You put him in power. I now appeal to you to have him displaced, or for awhile relieved from command by being placed under arrest, and thereby save eleven hundred and fifty citizens of Illinois from disgrace and ruin, and cause the Government to lose the services of as good and true men as can be found You owe this to us, and to yourself. You put him in his present position It is impossible for me to get arms or to do any the least good with the man at the head. He wont let us. We are in a most deplorable condition There is not better material in the world. Take the Colonel away and we will not be inferior to any Regiment in service. <hr /> Some time since I preferred charges against Col. Cavanaugh. They have been on Gen Paines and Gen. Shermans tables until now. Gen. S. sends them to day to Gen Halleck. The delay in forwarding them has been on account of the busy times here. Gen. Sherman says (and correctly too) that the public service will not admit to Courts Martial to try Colonels at this time, and that the effect of those charges may be to cause the Reg's. to be disbanded You can save us if you will write to Gen Halleck requesting him to place Col. Cavanaugh under arrest under the charges I have preferred again him. They are False muster - keeping a woman as his mistress - gross neglect of duty and falsehood. If you will do this, we will not be disbanded and will then be able to procure arms Governor, in the name of all these loyal citizens of Illinois, and their families and neighbors I beseech you to aid us. Our men look to you as the cause of our misery and as the only man who can relieve us. Write to Gen. Halleck requesting him to place Col.

Champaign Ill March 9th 1862 Hon Richard Yates Dear Sir, -- In August last I had the honor of receiving from you a Commission as Captain of Company "A" in the 20th Regt of Ill Vol -- which, owing to every species of injustice, and injury, which could be imposed by a a Superior Officer, I was compeled to Resign, in order to separate, myself, from the annoyances, and partialities of my Colonel. About the first of Nov, I quit the service, not however, intending to remain, out, but intending, to return, as soon as possible, as I felt confident, that the manner in which I had, discharged my <hr />duties, would entitle me to a position, which would enable me to Return to the service, for which purpose I called on Gen Fuller, Shortly after my return, when I learned for the first time, that having Resigned I could not be recommissioned when he promised me further advice, on that point. I have waited, until now, without any further attention, to what I know, are my Just claims; and in as much as Resigned Officers, have been Recommissioned, -- I wish to call your attention, to the propriety, of giving me such a position, as six months, in the service, without the absence of a single day, entitles me to have, and as the men of the Regt. to which I belonged, will attest, that I deserve <hr />Hoping that my request may not e neglected I remain your most Obt Servt &c John S.

Needs Review Transcription A written representation of a document or a page. Private Waukegan Lake Co Ill March 11, 1862 Dear Sir. I had not an opportunity of submitting to you fully and clearly my ideas in reference to an extra session of the Legislature, and the matter of the alleged vacancies of Seats. I am decidedly in favor of the extra session. I deem that the possible interests require it, and I beg to give you the following brief suggestions. The session should be harmonious & the body of that character to fully sustain the present State Administration. The best interests of the State absolutely require this. If there are no vacancies by resignation, death or removal among Republican members, the session it is presumed will be what is desired. It is said that at this time no seats of Republican members are vacant by death; none have removed from the seats of their districts, and none have resigned. It is said however that certain members have accepted offices from the United State and from this State since their election, and it is therefore required that they cannot under the Constitution hold their seats - This is not a question for the Executive; - by the Constitution <hr /> each house is made the judge of the qualifications of its members. No Executive can in no case judge of this, or declare seats vacant and on his own motion issue writs of election to fill vacancies on supposed disqualifications of members. As to resignations, without some express provision of law, members can only resign to the house of which they are members and before their seats can be vacated their resignation must have been accepted See case in 4 Devereau's Rep. p. 1. Properly and strictly the Executive can take no notice of the subject of qualification or disqualification of members or vacancies of Sents. except on information from the proper house. In this case the Gov. should issue his proclaimation for convening. & send a copy to the usual Post Office address of each member as if nothing had happened. When the General assembly convenes and it is reported to the Gov. by either house that vacancies exist in their body from resignation, disqualification or other case, he will issue writs of election & cannot til then. If the Gov. should in advance, on his own motion order elections to fill supposed vacancies arising from supposed disqualification of members <hr /> yet each house may admit those members supposed to have become disqualified and there is no other power to reverse or correct their action, In fine it would be a usurpation of power for the Executive to adjudge members to have become disqualified and declare their seats vacant & proceed to order their vacancies filled. In the case of Dr Ireysse of Sangamon I am informed that his family still reside in his Dist. so he may be considered a resident still. Pardon me for presuming to make these suggestions; I hope you may give the matter of vacancy due consideration; I am satisfied it is the proper view of the case In your proclaimation. I would like if you would include the subject of Revenue in general terms as one of the subjects to be acted upon, which would give the Legislature full power oer the matter of taxation which will be the important subject of action for the session.
