Letter from Judge Hanna to GOV
TO0.


GovsRNoR DAVID Ton, Columbus. Ohio:
Dear Sir-I was very much astonished when
/ received the Ohio Slate Journal of the 18th
inst. at finding sn article in it addressed to me
by you, and particularly so when I read It.
From my acquaintance with you had formed
the opinion that you we're very candid, hon.
es. msn--one who would not dodge or use
sophism to screen yourself from blunder or
error. But from your letter am led to believe
that there has been some imposition practiced
upon you In reference to the appointment OF
Major for the 9Th regiment o, V. l.; other.
wise you could not have written me az you did
on the 18th inst. Our meeting was held in
reference to your superseding Captain Wood
and appointing a Mr.. Ewing of Lancaster; and
you reply In reference to your appointing Major
Moore on the 1lth, one day after our meeting.
Now your candor would not have permitted You
to try to dodge in this way If all the facts had
ing committed 9 great outrage, as plain un.
vanished statement of the facts will show u
Then you give what you say Is such statetnen,
from which iiappears that Capt. Wood fwho i,
citizen Of this town) was recommended by The
Military committees Of this the 6.h DIstfics 70,
Major Of the 9th regiment OWL; and Won "a,
his nsme was placed upon the Adlutant. Gen
erals order-book 90 such, to take eifect wher
six companies were raised; that Wood was il
the service as commandant Of q three months
company whose termof service expired on the
10Th inst you sent the regiment into the field
on our border on the 7th Inst without Major.
You cay you could mot wait longer for Capt.
Wood. Now, Goseynor, you are not candid in
this statement, because, had you desired IL, you
cutld have recalled Can't Wood even before the
the 18th Of July, and oil the companies Of the
regiment were ln the camp Of rendezvous before
