Louisville Ky May 8th 1865 Gov Tho E Bramlette Frankfort Ky Dear Father.

I have the pleasure of recommending Capt Fr. de Tavernier, to you as for commission as aA. D. C. with rank as Col. Whilst I had the responsibilities of a Brigade on my hands, the Capt D was a. a. a. G. and always discharged his duties with promptness and fidelity. He is now about to return to his "the old country," and as a compliment to him for his services (although not appointed from this state) in Suppression assisting in the suppression of the unholy rebellion, I suggest him for the position.

Your afft. son J. T. Bramlette Lt Col &c
