To Thomas Jefferson from Henry Dearborn, 28 February 1805

From Henry Dearborn

[28 Feb. 1805]

Sir,

By the list of promotions in the office, it appears that Ensign Williamson is promoted to 2d Lt. in the place of either Hopkins or Piatt, to take rank the 16th. of June, and that Ensn. Russell will take rank as 2d Lt. the 12th. of October, the date of Bowers promotion. and that Ensn. Sebastian is promoted to 2d Lt. vice Lt. Dail, who died the 3d. of Septr.,—and will take rank accordingly.

on a reexamination, it appears that the corrections in the list of yesterday will extend to every case.

Your,s

H. Dearborn

RC (DLC); undated; addressed: “The President of the United States”; endorsed by TJ as received from the War Department on 1 Mch. 1805 and “Military nomns” and so recorded in SJL.
