L. C. Edwards Esq:
Sir, I return the papers of Huldah Warner with a certificate of the comptroller of Connecticut. This certificate states the services to have been in the company of Charles Ellsworth for 8. mo. & 6. days. I know no other mode of accounting for the discrepancy between the declaration & several affidavits than that after he the said Thomas Warner marched he was transferred to this company. It is also possible that those who have sworn connected the marching & return with other facts known to them. The witnesses are all respectable as to standing. He might have marched in one company & served in another & also returned with them. I suppose there is no possible doubt of the identity. I will add also that much difficulty arose in the first place in determining in what company he did serve. It was not until the leading affidavit of Blodget that the declarant ventured to speak on the officers. Of this I was informed by her agent. She was at that time very young.
In regard to the pay roll of Capt. Mason's company I forwarded the only information I have. In a former letter Mr. Abington informed me that Mr. Fanning would not part with the original.
I would add here that I wrote to the comp. of Connecticut in relation to Warner's services in 75. but two letters addressed to me in answer by him mislaid or did not come to hand. After waiting more than a month I forwarded the papers to the

war office - An early decision on this claim is requested -

Bezekiah Parsons of Enfield Ct. - the said Josiah Converse under whom the said Thomas Warner and myself enlisted was one of the Lieutenants of said Capt. Parsons said company. Ensign Blakeley of said Enfield was the Ensign of said Capt. Parsons said company, which said company belonged to Col.

Dear Sir / Enclosed you have Col. Parsons Account, as we find it in our Books. As Capt. Joseph Conner can be found, I do not find Amos Walbridge earlier than 1777 except a Pay Roll of his in 1775 for short levy in Lexington Mass. Warner's name is not on the Rolls. A. Guttman now in the Office who is in the habit of looking up evidence for Pensions says, he has a pay roll of Col. Stephen Parsons Company in 1776 on this Roll is the name of Thomas Warner also one Simon Rose who is now living in Enfield in this State. For this evidence is wanting you can obtain it by writing to Capt. Charlton Gage of Fort Windsor who is well acquainted with the Wars and will promptly attend to any order you may send him
J. A. Warner Esq.
Yours Respectfully Henry Kilbourn Clerk
