PILoT KNOB, Oct. Il, 1851:
MAJ. WM. r. WooD-Deaz Sir: You have
been appointed Junior Major of the Ist
Regiment Of Indiana Cavalry, without our
consent or knowledge. AS the commits
stoned officers of the Regiment, We thought
that we should have been consulted before
the appointment was made. You are aware
that at the time We enlisted we knew who
our field officers were to be. Afterwards an
order was issued for the appointment of an
other Major. At great expense to our
selves we had raised our companies, and the
officers are generally supposed to reflect the
sentiments Of the men. To all the men
you are personally very Objectionable, and
We think that your appointment should not
have been made without consulting the
viii of the Regiment.
Again, sir, We contend that you are not
in the regular line of promotion, and that
your calling in life should have said, to have
held to your position, and as christian, dis
charge the duties of it without letting am
bition take possession of you, and leading
you to desire to leave the position which
you had been called to discharge by high
or power than that of man.
AdAAnB tncsc thIHBs III ConStueEatlOu VIC
deem it necessary to hereby enter our pro-
test against your discharging the duties of
the position to which you have been ap-
pointed, and now here, representing the
unanimous will of the Regiment we re-
specially ask you to resign the position to
which you have been appointed, that the
Will of the Regiment may be consulted
And while doing this, we beg to assure you
that as a man, we entertain the highest
respect for you, and nothing but sense of
duty to the men whom we command would
have led Us to take the stand which we
have. In the event Of your refusing to
comply with this request, you must be
aware that it will be very unpleasant for US
TO remain together, as we will then deem it
necessary to publish this communication, a
copy of which is retained.
We have the honor to remain your hum
BILE and obedient servants,
