Dow, Colonel of the 13th Regiment, Maine Volunteers, discusses the recent capture of Roanoke Island, North Carolina. Writes, "May God grant it the beginning of constant and important success. We need it now, to help us in England & France." Praises his regiment, noting that they do not want to go with Butler to an unspecified location (possibly General Benjamin Franklin Butler), and asks for the recipient's assistance on his regiment's behalf.
