Sir,
I am very pleased to inform you, that my temporary transfer to the Army of Tennessee has been approved by the appropriate military authorities. I am more than ready to join you in fight against the illegal invasion on the sacred soil of the Peach State. I hope you will kindly accept my request and allow me to stand up for the Cause side by side with the Florida’s finest – the men of Company K, 7th Florida Volunteer Infantry.
In case of your amiable consent I will arrange all details of my arrival with QM Sgt. (….)
Hoping this letter finds you in good health,
I am, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
Clayton, pvt., 14th Louisiana Volunteer Infantry Regiment
