Dear Sir, Herewith I send you a letter from Col Jameson 2nd Regmnt M.V.M-

Upon its reception, I wrote Genl. Stevens at Bangor in regard to the manner in which I could join the 2nd Regmnt - get my uniform, bounty, etc. I enclose Genl. Stevens reply - Myself & brothers are wishing to go - Can we be mustered into the service of the U.S. in Maine & be forwarded to Washington - at the expense of the Government - I am sorry to mention expenses- but the disastrous effect which the war has had upon my business makes it an important item in arranging [?] my family -

Will it be convenient for you, to point out to me - the course to pursue to get into the 2nd Reg't now - on the same terms -as if I had started from here with them.

If so, please write me returning the 2 letters I sent.

Your Very Obt. Serv't.
