In the case of Judith Tennison widow of William of William Tennison, I send you the record of marriage, received since your communication, the long since written for. — In the case of Mrs. Hannah Tennison and Mrs. Elizabeth Chase, I hope to be able shortly to send you satisfactory proofs and explanations.
In the case of Mrs. Rachel Parkhurst widow of Samuel Parkhurst deceased, I have to state, that, her being more than 80 years old, the services of her husband performed more than 60 years ago, and his having been dead more than 25 years, must be her apology for any inaccuracy as to services or officers in her declaration. She claims no service after marriage.

No living witness of His services is known. But that he did serve in 1776, was taken by the British & Indians at the Cedars, was a prisoner, together with Amos St afford although he might not belong to the same Company is not doubted, both from proofs of his oft repeated declarations respecting it, and also, from proof of the declarations of others who were also with him. Numerous good and credible of this may be had, It is therefore earnestly desired that the records in the war department may be searched for the name of Samuel Parkhurst in connexion with the other names mentioned in her declaration of the defeat at the Cedars, in 1776, and inform me of the result. For the Record of the first service in 1775 at Roxbury and in the eastern woods, we suppose we must be Mass. Records.
