Bureau of Pensions; -
I received your letter of March 12 th in regards to the pension of Clayton Kendall, Kindall, or Kindle and I thank you for it, I am writing to your department to ask if you can send me the name of the place in which Kendall died, he was born in Burlington County in the year 1761 I do not know the date or month of his birth.
In the early part of 1800 he with his children except two sons moved out to the state of Ohio,

and later some of them went to Kansas, my information is he died in Ohio, if you would kindly send me the name of the place it would show whether I am right or wrong, and I would thank you very much.
Sincerely

James L. Conrad Esq. On or about the 8th day of August last I enclosed to the Hon. John H. Eaton Secretary of War Clayton Hunsdell's Pension certificate at his request, asking the issuance of a new certificate In lieu of the one sent in consequence of its being so much worn - and I received a letter from you enclosing a blank form for Hunsdell to certify his identity - which form I sent him - and which was mislaid by the person by whom sent and it did not reach him - but his certificate is at the office of the War Department, your letter stating that it had been received, and which I suppose has escaped your recollection, he has complied with the requisition of the Department and the papers will be forwarded.
Yours with Due Respect
