John Knapp has been recommissioned as Col. of the 8th and is to be detailed to command one of the Provisional regiments. Wolff will command the other. One of these regiments will go to Rolla, the other to New Madrid. Trouble may come from Knapp’s appointment. If so, let it come…the issue may as well be made now as at any other time. Gov. Hall has gone to Jefferson, your son Hamilton, to Springfield. Your bust is completed and stands upon a handsome pedestal in my office. Will we see you before Oct. 1? Gov.
