Circumstances has rendered it difficult to leave for Washington until now. I think I shall leave for that place tomorrow. You have very kindly withheld the commissions from Mr. Boynton. I think something like a month. I cannot ask you to withhold longer. Justice should be done to others as well as myself & I will, if not in that, seek a place in some other command, as I am determined to have justice if it can be obtained by honorable means. | Circumstances has rendered it difficult to leave for Washington until now.

Augusta Me. Oct. 16th 1862
Governor
Sir Circumstances has rendered it difficult to leave for Washington until now. I think I shall leave for that place tomorrow. You have very kindly withheld the commissions from Mr. Boynton. I think something like a month. I cannot ask you to withhold longer. Justice should be done to others as well as myself & I will, if not in that, seek a place in some other command, as I am determined to have justice if it can be obtained by honorable means.
I cannot think of thus quitting the service. In my whole life I have always sought to be honorable, and now to be disfranchized under such circumstances, is more than I can bear.
Very Respectfully And Sincerely Geo. W. Brown
Hon. I. Washburn Jr. Governor of Me. Augusta Me.
