Dear Sir
	Will you please inform me whether a Land Warrant has ever been sent to one Ansil Howard who served in the last war with Great Britain under Capt. Oliver Teal
The papers were sent to the Department about the month of September 1844. He went from Manlius Square Onondaga County New York
We have had good reasons to suppose that it has been sent and retained by the person who sent & made out the papers for Mr. Howard
