- Hamilton Rowan Gamble Papers | Letter signed Amos P. Foster, Headquarters of Franklin County, United States Reserve Corps, Washington, Missouri, to Hamilton R. Gamble, Jefferson City. I write to you to ascertain if your father has appointed a quartermaster for the state forces yet? If not I would like to be considered for the appointment. I have seen James B. Maupin about acting as your father’s adjutant in this district. We say he cannot serve. Colonel Gale thinks that Colonel Thomas C. Fletcher of DeSoto, Jefferson County, will serve. Please tell General Smith and Colonel Gale some more muster rolls and copies of the military law. Individuals mentioned include James B. Maupin, Colonel [D.Q.] Gale, Colonel Thomas C. Fletcher and General Smith. (2 pages), 1861 Sept 18
