A short time ago I sent to you for the record of Samuel Hanna of Granby and Sheffield which you kindly sent me. There is evidently a mis- take in our records as your paper makes him

but 80 years old and our 84.
Will you please send me record of Samuel Hanna of Hanover pen- sions on list of 1840 age 80. and of Samuel Hanna on list of 1818 resident of Vermont.
Thanking you for your trouble I am
Very truly (Miss) Alice M. Gay
