which a portion of them took at Willets Point, binding them for three years is now looked upon as a sham & will not satisfy those who took it- they cannot see it justice in as much as violent threats were used to induce it in many instances- I think the boys decided, loyal & willing to serve their country will till the last but exceedingly sensitive about their rights, especially since the 7th have had the privilege of going home as a Reg't- I have already written to Vice Pres Hamlin & Rep Rice on the subject & so have some others among the officers- Believing you will do what is just & practicable I remain
