Capt. George Randolph Dyer, AQM--Lincoln-Signed Commission and Pilot Knob ArchiveComprising an early eagle mast head commission partially printed on vellum, 12.25 x 15.75 in., matted, framed and glazed, 14.25 x 17.25 in., dated 21 February 1862, appointing George R. Dyer as Assistant Quartermaster of Volunteers with the rank of Captain. Signed by Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) as President and Edwin M. Stanton (1814-1869) as Secretary of War (1862-1868), with a later conveyance letter from the Adjutant General’s Office; plus the earlier formal appointment letter to George R. Dyer signed by Secretary of War Simon Cameron (March 1861-January 1862).The archive portion consists of 31 file folders, 24 of which contain primarily wartime personal correspondence coinciding with Captain Dyer’s assignment as Assistant US Quartermaster at the Pilot Knob, Missouri post. The letters span January 1862 to July 1865, but are scant on details regarding the quartermaster operation at Pilot Knob (in fact Geo. Dallas Dyers’ letters are more illuminating). Additionally, there are several pieces of interesting ephemera including Captain Dyer’s original 1885 GAR membership certificate from the Baxter Springs, Kansas Post No.123, an 1864 dated military railroad pass, original telegrams, and two manuscript documents written and signed by noted abolitionist and educator, General Clinton B. Fisk (1828-1890), a personal friend of George R. Dyer. Rounding out the lot are eleven civilian portraits (five are duplicates) of George Dyer taken between the late 1870s (a cdv) and 1892 (mostly cabinet cards) including one view of the regal old gentlemen wearing his MOLLUS medal. A file of 19th century manuscript Dyer biography and George’s printed 1895 MOLLUS “In Memoriam” pamphlet complete the lot.George R. Dyer’s Pilot Knob letters contain no battle content and very little concerning the day-to-day operations of the quartermaster department at the post. There are large gaps in the letters and most consist of newsy correspondence between various friends and family members living back in Chicago, Elgin and Plainfield, Illinois. Even at the Pilot Knob post the presence of family is evident—the captain’s son, George Dallas Dyer, worked as a clerk and died there in 1863 while Mrs. Dyer seems to have visited her husband with some regularity during the war.As the tempo of operations moved further south after 1862, Pilot Knob became something of a Missouri backwater albeit for sporadic guerrilla warfare that flared in a region dotted with Rebel sympathizers. The letters hint at legitimate business dealings as the buying and selling of “contraband horses and mules” became a reoccurring theme. The quartermaster seems to have also speculated locally in food supplies and animal fodder, systematically “hauling it in teams” from a radius around the post. Captain Dyer, who frequently complained of ill-heath, was able to take leave on occasion and just happened to be absent “in the North on sick leave” in September 1864, the one time Pilot Knob came under attack during Sterling Price’s ill-fated Missouri Invasion. After 1863 Captain Dyer hinted once or twice at pursuing loftier goals — a staff position with General Fisk — but remained at his post until his resignation from the army on May 15, 1865.A few excerpts from the letter collection: September 10, 1861 from Patience Huntington, Dyer’s sister: Not all in Illinois were stirred by the prospect of war and buoyed by patriotism. George sister was terse in her feelings: “I am about to employ all my powers of argument and persuasion to prevent you joining the army. Under other circumstances it might be your duty. Were your wife in vigorous health and your children (not so young), and your own health firm I would say no word to prevent it…but our patriotism must not make us forgetful of the virtues we owe to those for whom none can be a substitute…”Having reconciled his conscience with family responsibilities, George Dyer enlisted on October 31, 1861. The centerpiece of that decision is the Lincoln signed commission and accompanying War Department paperwork rarely found together after 150 years. January 8, 1862 to his wife Elizabeth (Howell Kimball) a long letter: Already Captain Dyer confesses his loneliness writing that the pain of being separated from his children is “harder than I thought it would be.” He hopes to return home “some time next month” if he can get a leave of absence. George briefly describes his duties, “I have a vast amount to attend to” and tells Elizabeth that “George (their eldest son George Dallas) arrived the 2nd day of this month and has done very well since he came…” He offers some insight into business matters, “We sold 52 horses & mules that had been taken from the enemy, I had to sell them. They brought 1300. They were very poor and small (and) sold rather low. Some were good but I did not buy for I thought I would rather send all the money home I could for you.” The letter includes a lengthy list of goods that Elizabeth should bring to Pilot Knob — “towels, butter, tea, a lamp or two” — as “some items can’t be had in this country.” He will express his pay, “Only 156 dollars instead of the 200 as I expected but I hope to have George have 60 per month which will help pay for being scattered all over the world.”The family might have been experiencing some financial difficulties as Capt. Dyer then rationalizes the quartermaster job lamenting, “If I can stand it for one year it will help my family some and that is all I am at work for.” He gives some instructions relating to the livestock management at the Plainfield farm and concludes by asking Elizabeth to send “my cane for it would help me to get through the mud which is very deep.”September 15, 1862 to sister Patience: Young George Dallas Dyer has left his Pilot Knob clerkship and joined the army. A proud but fearful Captain Dyer writes, “My poor boy only 17 years old gone to defend his country. Sister he is a fine boy manly as most men of 25 years (see George’s military cdv) & capable of doing any kind of business… He has gone & I hope he will do his duty. He is the youngest man in his company & is the captain. They all like him & I hope he will return the confidence of his company…”November 2, 1862 from Lt. W.F. Crain, 5th Illinois Cavalry: A mundane request asking Captain Dyer for his help in locating and recovering “a dozen lost or stolen horses” from the regiment. The animals were left at Pilot Knob and were due to be returned by cavalrymen convalescing in the hospital.A newspaper article dated January 8, 1863 reported on an abundance of new from Pilot Knob giving scope to the quartermaster operation there as well as featuring the approbations of Captain Dyer’s peers who had presented him with a “superb gold watch” on New Years Eve. The correspondent noted, “An air of unusual bustle and activity pervades this usually quiet town, caused by the arrival of 300 wagons from General Davidson’s Division, Army of Southeast Missouri. They are now loading with commissary stores for his army…” destined for Little Rock. The article quoted the lengthy testimonial “engraved on the case” and showered platitudes, “Our Government has been blessed and cursed with many faithful and unfaithful disburs
