{UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL}
STATE OF KENTUCKY.

Head-Quarters Kentucky Volunteers,
ADJUTANT GENERAL'S OFFICE,
Frankfort, Sept 1^st, 1864.
Maj Chas. W. Quiggins
Capital Guard Regt
Paris Ky.
Major.

The Governor has decided that recruiting officers have no authority to enlist men out of the Capital Guard Regt, but that they must go out and enlist citizens. This is done to preserve discipline among our men as they are now in active ~~duty~~ service, and not for the purpose of discouraging enlistments in the US service. You will therefore notify any officer who attempts to recruit them that a transfer will not be made.

Very Respectfully
D, W, Lindsey
Inspector & Adjt Gen^l Ky
