Head Quarters 3d Brigade, 1st Div. 5 Corps. Camp at Beverly Ford, Va. Aug 31st 1863
To His Excellency Governor Coburn,
Governor,
I am well acquainted with Lieut. Adelbert B. Twitchell of the 5th Battery Maine Vols., & my knowledge of his character as a man & his high reputation as an officer, enable me to say with pleasure that he is a most deserving officer. I know of no one from our State, in the Artillery service, whose character, conduct, experience & gallant services, better entitle him to promotion.
Any such appointment which might be within your gift would be deservedly bestowed & creditable to our State.
Very respectfully Your obdt servt. J.L Chamberlain Co. 20th Maine Vols. Comdg.[?] Brigade
