Head-Quarters Military Commander, Louisville. Louisville, Ky., Jany 25th 18634.

To his Excellency Gov Bramlett Sir

I have the honor to recommend Mr John Spaulding, formerly Capt of Co "G" 15th Regt Ky Vol Inf, to you as a deserving applicant for a position as secret policeman or detective. Capt S. has during the time he was connected with the 15th Ky shown himself to be a trusty & efficient officer, and was compelled to resign on account of an injury received while in service. His wound is sufficiently well to permit him to perform the above service, but hinders him from becoming a veteran.

I am Very Respectfully Your. Obdt Svt S D Bruce Col 20th Ky Vol Inft Military Commander
