The Military Secretary,

Dear General,
A friend of mine desires a copy of the application of Timothy Hatch, for pension as a Revolutionary soldier, giving who he was, and what he did. There was a Connecticut and a Massachusetts gentleman of this name; I ask of Timothy Hatch of Hartford, Conn.

The other is supposed to have enlisted from Barnstable or neighboring Cape Cod town, served locally on Elizabeth Islands Vineyard Sound and as far south as Newport; this is not the man. 

The Connecticut Hatch was a prisoner of War, taken at White Plains, and confined in the New York Bridewell till exchanged. Later he was a Major in suppression of Shays Rebellion.

It occurred to me that your records, better than any elsewhere, would afford the desired data. If they do not, will you please forward this to the proper  Department?

Thanking you sincerely for your interest herein, I am,
Very truly yours,

My dear sir,
Some time since, there was referred to your office my communication to the Military Secretary requesting a copy of the application of Timothy Hatch, of Connecticut, a Revolutionary soldier, for pension.

You replied thereto with certain excerpts therefrom, which reply was sent my correspondent. He has written me, however, that he desired not the facts sent by you as much as all the statements contained in the application , his purpose being, I believe, to complete a genealogical history. He has, therefore, renewed his request for a copy of the application. Will you favor me with an exact copy? Or, if such could not be properly secured through your having a copy made by a clerk, will you permit that my secretary go to the Bureau and make a copy instead?

Thanking you for the copy, or the permission desired, I am,
Very truly yours,
G. R. Patten

I understand, further, that the detail of his services and all the facts respecting his imprisonment, are also desired.

Dear Sir:-
In reply to my request for a pension record of Timothy Hatch, you sent me under date of February 27th a record of a Revolutionary Pensioner who resided at the date of enlistment at Kent, Conn. Date of application was September 6, 1832 and residence at date of application, Sherburne, New York. I do not think this is the record that I am looking for, as the Timothy Hatch that I am interested in resided in Hartford, Conn., at the time of his application, a record of the application being on file in the County Clerk's office in Hartford.

Can you advise me if there is such a man on your records as a pensioner, and if so kindly send me his record, and oblige
