Digitized by Google LIFE OP COMMODORE THOMAS MACDONOUGH 97 SECRETARY OF THE NAVY TO MACDONOUGH l8ll Navy Department, 15 Octo., 181 i. lt. t. macdonough, Middletown, Conn. Your letter of the 26th ult. was considered. The high character you have sustained in the service disposes me to grant you every reasonable indulgence. You were certainly wrong in making any private engagements which required your leaving the United States without my previous permis- sion & of this you cannot, from your feelin...gs as an officer, but be sensible on reflection. Your having done so has induced me to hesitate upon the proper answer to be given your propo- sition to resign if you could not have a furlough. As this, however, is the first instance of your having in any degree acted exceptionally since you have belonged to the navy, I have thought fit to overlook it & to grant you the further indulgence asked by you. You will, therefore, consider your- self on furlough for the purpose of making a voyage in the merchant service & on your return you will report yourself to this Department.
