Sir

Eleanor Davis a pensioner on the Cincinnati Roll under 2nd section of the act of Feb 3, 1853, placed her pension certificate in my hands for safekeeping and on 30th June last in order that she might be prepared to draw her pension on 4th inst. I mailed the certificate to her addressed to "J S Perkins Reeves, Ohio" She did not receive it for the reason that there is no such post office in Ohio and of course it has gone to the dead letter office and months must elapse before it can be returned to me. She is much in want of her pension and therefore I would respectfully ask you for a duplicate of it - I will if necessary make affidavit to above facts.

Dear Sir: -
Will you please cause to be forwarded to me, for
ancestral purposes, as much information as it is possible to
give in regard to the Military record of a certain soldier
of the Revolutionary war. His name is Marmaduke S. Davies,
however, I believe his name on the record was spelled Davis.
I also believe he enlisted at Baltimore, Md. and he served
about nine months or more and was honorably discharged on
account of disability due to gun shot wound in the leg for
which he drew a pension.

By causing any information in regard to the above
being sent to me you will greatly oblige.
