my judgment I shall not be really needed after December 1st or December 5th, at latest.
Doubtless Gen'l. Hazen would be very glad of the assistance of an officer until the arrival of his permanent assistant Bvt. Capt. Penney, the Adjt. of his regiment, who will arrive early in January - but I do not think it best for me to stay that long, and, in addition, I do not care to personally.
