Yours of Jany 2nd has been received, by that I was informed that no reconeu evidence of the entitling service of Arthur Paul could be found, consequently the Claim of Lucretia Paul, his widow, to Bounty Land under Act of March 3 1855, was suspended. There must be some mistake or oversight in the examination of said Claim said Arthur was a regular Continental Soldier & served during the whole war & became entitled to Eighty dollars bounty under the Resolution of May 15th 1778, that is - this is what she has just told me & which is also, the neighborhood report, which I believe is earnest, admiting this to be the case there must be record evidence in your office of entitling service of the said Paul to establish the claim of the said Lucretia, I therefore respectfully request a reexamination of said claim.
