Office of the Ellsworth American,
Ellsworth, Me., Oct 1 1862.
Gov. Washburn.-
I sent you a petition yesterday or the day before, asking for the appointment of Alonzo K. Mirrick, a member of Co. D. 2d Maine, to a position in a company now in Bangor. It is my sad duty to inform you that the gallant young Mirrick is dead, and therefore we can do no more for him here. I thank you for the disposition you have manifested to do all you could for the deserving privates in the old regiments, as well as for all classes of Maine soldiers.
Very truly N.K. Sawyer
