Sir,

It is not of my competency to accept Resignations. The matter contained in your letter of Yesterday relative to Lt. Reading has been communicated to the Secy. of War, and the acceptance recommended, and it is presumed that it will take place.

With great consideration I am Sir Yr. obedt. servt.

A Hamilton

Col: Ogden
