Sir:
I have the honor to request that I be furnished with a copy of the record of Joseph Kimball, a revolutionary soldier. His name is taken from the Vermont Historical Gazetteer Vol 3-4 where it appears in a list of pensioners on the roll of Dec. 31, 1818. His age is there given as 73 and his residence Rutland County Vt. The name also appears in the proceedings of the Vermont Historical Society Vol for 1898 from which source I find that he was buried in Rutland, Vt.
Any information that you can give me on this matter will be greatly appreciated,

Sir
Mr. Merrill has forwarded to me your letter to him of the 9. inst. with the papers of Joseph Hinckall claiming a pension under the late act of Congress. You say "it appears that he (Hinckall) did not serve on the continental establishment at any one establishment for the time of nine months. his claim is therefore excluded under the law of the 18. March 1818, according to the decision of the Secy. of war regarding the particular construction of this clause" — It was hoped that that act would have received a more liberal construction; and it will be particularly regretted in this part of the country that it did not, inasmuch as it will exclude many of those who fought the memorable battle of Bunker hill, & also laid the foundation of American independence. The Massachusetts troops of 1775 I believe uniformly enlisted for 8 months, and unless they can couple that service with the subsequent campaigns, many of them, & among them some of the most meritorious & needy applicants will be excluded from the provisions of that act. It was believed there would be no difficulty in considering the troops of that year as constituting the continental establishment; altho' it might have been objected that they were not

primarily organized under the immediate direction of Congress, yet they were, I believe, subsequently subject to the control of Genl Washington; His appointments & changes of officers made by him as he thought proper.
I am however induced to believe that the decision of the Secy. does not exclude the claim of Simsbury, and therefore return you the papers in his case, with a request that you will re-examine them. It appears that he joined the rendezvous at Springfield 27. July 1779, and was discharged the 27. Apr. 1780, which makes nine months service to a day. I presume it will not be objected but that his services commenced the day he joined at Springfield. It appears he served in the 12 th Mass. Reg t and you may have considered that as a Militia Reg t as subsequently the Massachusetts line was reduced to 10 regiments. Judge Hammond before whom the evidence in this case was taken, is confident that was a continental regiment; and he is confirmed in this opinion by the fact that in 1780 he himself served in the 15 th Mass. reg t which he says was certainly of the continental establishment. It was found impossible to keep the regiments full by long enlistments, and they consequently accepted of short enlistments. Judge Hammond enlisted for but six months.
