    The focus on these is REALLY bad. Unreadably bad.

    The first one is a good (hopefully) conduct discharge from the military.

    Hi,

    there is something, that I cannot read, and something, that I cannot understand.

    K?niglich-Hannnoversches 4. Infanterieregiment

    Inhaber dieses, der Infanterist J?rgen Heinrich M?ller I.

    geboren zu Neetze Amts Scharnebeck hat in obigem Regiment

    die auf der folgenden Seite bemerkte Zeit treu und redlich

    gedient, ist jedoch nunmehro nach abgelaufener Dienstzeit

    aus dem selben entlassen, und, nachdem er durch seine Name(?)

    Unterschrift umstehend seine Abrechnung als richtig anerkannt hat, mit diesem Abschiede versehen worden

    Stabs-Quartier Stade, den 21. October 1855

    R?st, Oberstleutnant Regimentskommandeur (Oberstlt. Regts-Commdr.)

    Signalement des Verabschiedeten:

    Alter: 28 (23?) Jahre

    Gr??e: 5 Fu? 9 Zoll

    Haare: blond

    Augen: grau (gr?n?)

    Handwerk: -0-

    It is the end of his time as a soldier. Is there another page with his listed time of service?

    Zeugni?

    Das Betragen des nach beendeter Dienstzeit verabschiedeten

    und unter dem 31. October 1855

    mit einem guten Abschiede

    versehenen Infanteristen J?rgen Heinrich M?ller I.

    ist w?hrend seiner activen Dienstzeit

    und, eingezogenen Erkundigungen zufolge, auch w?hrend seiner zeitweiligen

    Beurlaubungen von der Art gewesen, da? er ohne Nachtheil des Dien-

    stes wieder als Stellvertreter angenommen werden kann. Der Infanterist M?ller I.

    geh?rt nach Ansicht des (unreadable, need a better picture, it could be important)

    Stade, den 31, October 1855

    (name)

    (unreadable) (that could be the paymaster)

    Best?tigt.

    R?st

    Oberstleutnant Regimentskommandeur

    Is on the page in post 6 another signature from M?ller, could be XXX?

    The left signature is from Oberstleutnant Steinwedell as Bataillonskommandeur(?)

    Regards

    Uwe
