Confederate general and commander of the elite militia organization, the Chatham Artillery. War-dated handwritten endorsement signed “John F. Wheaton,” one page, 3.5 x 4, October 2, 1863. Wheaton writes from the Headquarters of Chatham Artillery: “Respectfully disapproved on the grounds that asst. Surgeon Magill. Surgeon in chg. of the company is of the opinion, with a full knowledge of private Hunter’s condition, that Service as a clerk would be more detrimental to his health than service with his company. He is of the opinion that Private Hunter is disqualified for either duty in the field or as a clerk and recomends [sic] that he be discharged from Service.” Reverse bears docketing in two different hands. In very good condition, with uniform shade of toning, light feathering and haloing to the signature, and mounting remnants on the reverse.
