Mrs. Jennie H. Ripple
Box 64, East Main Street
West Lafayette, Ohio

Dear Madam:
The Revolutionary War records of this office show that Richard Taylor served in the Revolution from the State of Delaware, no further details of service shows, and that on account of his service Warrant No. 10696, for one hundred acres of bounty land was issued Septembers 2, 1789.

This office has no record of statements made in the application of bounty land, because of the destruction of papers in such early claims when the War office was burned in 1800, therefore, no further data relative to Richard Taylor.
Very truly yours
A.D. Hiller
