Capt W. P. Anderson
A. A. G
Lexington. Ky
Captain
An application was made some days since by Private George Albertson 6th Iowa Infantry for the position of Lieut in a Ky regiment.
I am directed to say, that it would indeed gratify the Governor to give a Commission to Pt Albertson, but that a sense of the duty he owes the many Kentuckians now in the field & who are deserving, will prohibit it.
Yours Respectfully
John Boyle
adjt Gen of Ky
