Thomas D. Hamilton was a planter in Corinth, Mississippi, and was called into service by Governor Pettus and instructed to go to Lynchburg, Virginia, where he was mustered into service with Company H of the 11th Regiment Mississippi Volunteers on May 13, 1861. Hamilton would go on to serve in other units and was appointed as major and quartermaster on October 4, 1862. Early 1863 saw him stationed in Rome, Georgia, where this note was issued. Future posts brought him to Gainesville, Florida, where he surrendered at the end of the war. Presently four notes are known with his endorsement. This example, which PMG notes has two missing corner tips and ink burn, serves as the plate note in Mike McNeil's 2016 book covering endorsements on CSA T39, T40, and T41 $100 Treasury Notes (page 315).
