Camp 11" Ky. Cav Cobb County Ga June 30/ 64 To his Excellency Thos E, Bramlet Gov of Kenty My Dear Sir

In behalf of the Officers & men of this regt I address you this letter relative to the appointment of a Lieut Col to fill the vacancy occassioned by the regination of A J Alexander,

It is the earnest desire of boath officers & men that Maj. ^Milton^ Graham be commissioned Lt Col & Capt Frederick Slater be commissioned Maj vice Graham, But if Graham does not accept the appointment of Lt Col thus the regt ardently desires that Capt Slater be commissioned Lieut Col, However petitions have already been sent you signed by every officer in the regt present save Maj Boyle & two others, to this effect,

Boath Maj Graham & Capt Slater have the undivided confidence of the regt and they have upon all occasions where danger presented it self acted the part of deliberate skilful & brave officers, I do trust for the good of the regt & the cause in which it is engaged you will most favorably consider their claims to promotion

It has been rumored in Camp that Maj W O boyle will be Lt Col Now Gov I do not wish to speak disrespectfully of Maj Billy Boyle for I have (found him to be a very cleaver little boy. But I do not hesitate to express my beliefs that his appointment will be disastrous to the regt You are fully aware

2

that the success of a regiment greately depends upon the confidence placed by the subordinates in their commander And I assure you that precious little if any confidence is placed in Majr Boyle by the officers & men of this regt in comparison to Maj Graham or Capt Slater

I suppose there are not half a dozen officers in the regt who recognized a superior in Maj Boyle in point of inteligence, bravery Military Skills or every thing else of worth, They only recognize the unfortunate fact that luck has placed him in possession of a Majors commission,

Gov I write this not that I have any ^personal^ ill feeling for Maj Boyle but because it is right that you should be apprised of his disrepute in the regt which togather with his want of age & experience renders him unfit for the responsible position of Lt col

I am Gov with much respt Your Friend W P Pierce Lt & Adjt 11" Ky Cav

Head Qrs 11 Ky Cavy Cobb Coy Ga. June 30 1864

W. P. Pierce Lt. & Adj. -- to -- Govr Bramlette

In relation to the promotion of Maj Graham to the position of Lieut Col. says that he is the unanimous choice of Officers -- says that he understands that Maj. W. O Boyle has been recommended but it does not meet the approval of the Officers
