Chief Surgeon's Office
Genl Hospl Camp Winder
November 20, 1862
Sir,
It is with a sense of duty as well as
pleasure that I recommend Lieut. W. K. Tabb as a soldier accomplished in his
profession and a Gentleman of many virtues for Promotion. The manner in which he
has conducted the Military Command of the Guard of this Hospital, the largest in
the Government - containing over 4,000 souls, entitles him justly to the Rank of
Captain, while his military attainments better fit him for the command of a
Regiment in the field.
With high sentiments of Respect, I am
Very Respectfully Yr Obt Servt
