Head Quarters 8^th Regt M.N.G.

Balt^o Janry 10^th 1868

 

Capt W^m H. Grape;

                                   

Sir

            Col S               directs me to write this and get you to draw up another resignation we can not get the one sent accepted. They want some good reasons, mentioned in it, and it must be addressed to the Col of the Regt and not me. Draw it up on a whole sheet of letter paper as you did before folded in three equal folds so that the endorsements required can be put on the back. Date it three or four days back and forewarded it as soon as possible to these Headquarters and we will try and get it through. don't delay it if you wish it accepted. besides we want the Company to elect some one in your place, which they cannot do until your resignation is accepted. in haste

 

Yours Respectfully

B Louis Simpson Jr
