“…For myself and for Company A, Eighth Regiment (for whom I am authorized to speak), I desire to say that we despise the disguised effort to control the action of this company in making such presentation to Colonel Burtis as they might consider proper, and that the high estimation in which we have always held Colonel Burtis, both as a soldier and gentleman, is not in the slightest degree impaired by the communication referred to, notwithstanding its author evidently intended that its effect should be of the most severe and damaging character. 
Respectfully yours,
C. J. Blauvelt”
