To the Hon. Israel Washburn Jr
    Governor and Commander in Chief

Sir  We the undersigned Citizens of Brewer
and vicinity respectfully represent that
Charles F Nickerson of Brewer is a Corporal
in Company G. 2d Reg. of Maine Vol - and
that he is desirous of being transfered 
to some one of the batteries of Artillery now
being formed in this State with the hope
of a more honorable position than he now 
holds - Mr Nickerson is a young man
of good character and habits - smart and
intelligent and is capable of filling a more
important job than he now holds - And
the fact that he was amongst the first to
respond to their Countrys call and take up
arms for her defense ought not to bar
him from promotion - we therefore request
that he may be transfered to C of Swett's
battery of Artillery now recruiting at Bangor
