Dr. William S. Thomas,

New York City.

Sir:
I advise you that from the records of this Bureau it appears that Warrant Number 917 for three hundred acres of bounty land was issued October 23, 1790 on account of the services of Michael Gabriel Houdin, Captain of the Massachusetts Line, War of the Revolution.
There are no further data on file as to his services and no data as to family, owing to the destruction of papers in such claims when the War Office was burned in November 1800.

Respectfully,

WINFIELD SCOTT,
Commissioner.
