Augusta  Feby 14 1862

To Hon. I. Washburn, Jr.
Governor of Maine

Sir

The undersigned seek this
manner of calling your attention to 
the personal worth and experiance of
Mr. Charles Bridges of Castine.

Mr. Bridges is now a [?]
officer in Company B 2nd Reg Maine
Vol; has acted well his part in all the
service of that gallant Regiment, and
would now line an appointment as
Lieut.

Feeling, therefore, that his character
and experience eminently fit him for
such a place, we shall feel especially 
gratified if in your power to grant it.

Very Respectfully
B.M. Roberts
N.G. Hichborn
J.W. Townsend
S. Parkman
