Enclosed I transmit your two new applications for pensions & nine others with additional proofs. Also The discharge of Ebenezer Moore Davis application was forwarded to you under date of June 5 th — as to those who have produced additional proofs some of them are positive of all the facts required which afford that strong presumption of a regular discharge which would warrant a jury in finding the facts — as to some of them who remained in service after the close of the war it must be next to impossible to find any of them for fellow soldiers that cannot be had doubt from the wording of the act whether you would in fact even consider the proof of discharge essential — not having any more positive proof as than prove I have forwarded them for your consideration — after seeing the course of your adjustments on the subject I shall probably be better able to judge when they shall have procured sufficient proof to be worthy of transmission —
I forwarded to you under date of June last 20 applications for which I have yet heard nothing — the applicants are anxious to have the result — but I

I assure the great pleasure of this being has delayed this this long —
