Sir

The inclosed ought to have been forwarded
to me at Washington. I beg leave now to call
your attention to it - and to the case of Mrs. Hannah
Tindall - & to solicit your examination of them - I hope
cases solite [solicit? excite?] deep interest as the reputation of the
services of their husbands in the revolution is
known to the whole population of Trenton
who were acquainted with them - I hope that
this evidence of the Birth of the first child of
Mrs Yard entered in the family Bible by the
husband will be satisfactory.

No act will be hailed with more satisfaction
than the allowance of these applications
I think them eminently just, and you will by allowing
them entitle yourself to the thanks of the
widow & the fatherless

I have the honor to be
Sir
with great respect
