Head Quarters 2nd Regt Me V. Camp Seward Washington Jun 20th 1861
Dear Sir
I noticed by the papers a few days ago since the arrival at New York of fifty thousand Enfield Rifles & that a portion of them were intended for the State Maine.
If that is true I rially hope you will furnish my Regt[with that arm. I suppose you [?] arrange that quite a portion of the rifles now in possession of the first rgt were taken from Companies now in my rgt prior to our leaving Bangor & it would seem that we are an entitled to the new rifles in preference to any other rgt.
There are parties here that are very anxious to furnish nice knapsacks at a very few days
