George Guion, Ridgefield, La., to Bishop Polk, re: an expression of astonishment
over the Bishop's acceptance of the appointment in the Army - many remarks
about the unexpected news; stating further that he believed him to be right and
correct in his decision - that it was his duty before God to exercise his talent in this
way; thanking him heartily for taking upon himself the responsibility; wishing too
that he had a military education so as to be able to come to his aid. 4 pp.
