Captain W. H. Male

Captain,

I intended giving a special letter of approval, and some expression of regards for your zeal and efficiency while on my staff. several officers asked and received such, but you did not ask it: I deem you particularly worth, and you should not be neglected on a/c [[account]] of your modesty.

I have written to Washington recommending several officers of volunteers for appointment in the regular Army, and have included your name in the list; if there is anything else I may or can do for you, should an opportunity occur, you must write to me and my aid will not be withheld.  I remain with respect

Yours truly
(Sgd) E.O.C ord
