in this state (two years) I have had leave of absence twice; the first was sick leave and was in the summer of 1866,
the second leave I received last spring it was, however, revoked a few days after being granted, in consequence of my being appointed Registering Officer: I have therefore had no leave of absence for sixteen months.
Under the circumstances of the case I would respectfully ask your opinion if it would be advisable for me to ask for leave.

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Serv't
Hiram L. Hunt
Bvt Capt of A.S.A.C.
