the public judge.  If I have failed to meet your reasonable expectations it has been from inexperience &  lack of ability, for I assure you I have spared no pains to keep up the reputation of the Maine 2nd to the highest possible standard the circumstances of the case would admit of.

I would recommend for the interest of the Regt the immediate promotion of Lt. Col. Roberts & Maj. Varney and the gratification of their wishes as far as practicable in the appointment of Maj. to fill the vacancy caused by their promotion. Regretting exceedingly the necessity of resigning at this time and thanking you for the confidence reposed in me, I remain

Very respectfully
Your Obt Svt

C. D. Jameson


Hon I. Washburn Jr
Gov. of Maine
