During this time he served three months at least and was honorably discharged But thinks he recd no written discharge. or it was not customary to give written discharge. It is well known to the department that there were thirty battalions and under continual alarm. During these years from the Indians as the law he thinks he entered the first of May at that time the time the Indians came into the country.
The next was from Bannock place or before as a volunteer in May 1878. he thinks the first are another law of two months under capt Samuel Hoyt A Major David Smith.

Commissioner of Pensions Washington D.C. Dear Sir -
I answered you a note on the 1 st July last making enquiry as to whether or not Mrs Rebecca Rineard had ever applied for a land warrant or a pension as the widow of Robert Rineard of Kentucky - and at what time said Robert was pensioned and at what time did it cease to be called for.
I have your note of August 5 th declining to give the information unless for satisfactory reasons -
The reasons why I ask the information from you (over)

are. That one James H Arnold prepared the papers for Mrs R Kineaid widow of Robert applying for a land warrant and also a pension. That she gave him her husband's certificate and all the papers in relation thereto. That shortly afterwards said Arnold was apprehended in Cincinnati Ohio for passing counterfeit money and sent to the Ohio State Penitentiary for 10 years. This was about 2 years ago. That she has no information as to what disposition he made of the papers. nor can she get information from him in relation to the same - Having applied both before and since your notice of

the 8 th August last,
She desires to make an other application or if the one prepared by Miss Stone has been presented to prosecute it further or at least see what disposition has been made of it -
I remain yours very truly Reuben L. Dugill

Her Sir I wish you to examine the Pension rolls and inform me when a pension was granted Robert Kineaid of Kentucky who afterwards died and a pension was continued to his widow Ro- -becca Kineaid. Said Kineaid died about six years ago, and the widows pension was continued some three years afterwards, when she lost her certificate .
I also want you to examine and see if the original papers and evid- -idence is on file upon which the pension was granted.
I do this with a view of applying for an other certificate. The old lady is ill and has forgotten the particulars
Your early attention will much oblige
