consent of the commanding officer. Had it not been done in this and other States before I would not now ask it in my own case.
Should you think best to commission me I would take as many men as I could possibly influence to go with me. I might not be able to take all, as, not going into the corps they enlisted for they may be entitled to select their regiment.
In conclusion allow me to state, that my expectations are that you will grant my request, and my plans, if you do not, for the men to go into any regiment they choose, go back myself to my old duty of recruiting for the 2d Regiment till I am recalled and then serve my country in the field to the end of the war.
Thanking you for remembering me I have the honor to be Very Respectfully Your Obt Servant J.W. Chamberlain
To His Excellency I. Washburn Jr. Governor of Maine Augusta Maine
