Memorandum: Promotion of George Sangster1Jump to section

Executive Mansion,
Washington, March 14, 1863.

To-day, Gov. Hicks, with Col. Walton, Member of Md. Leg. & Mr. Ireland, Post-Master at Anapolis, and ask that Col. George Sangster, of N.Y. be promoted. These Md. people make his acquaintance [from] his commanding paroled camp at Anapolis. Senator Harris, is also for him.

Annotation

[1] AD, IHi. No record has been found of a promotion for Lieutenant Colonel George Sangster of the Forty-seventh New York Militia. Thomas Ireland was the Annapolis postmaster, and ``Col. Walton'' was doubtless John Walton, who served one term in the House of Delegates 1861-1863.
