Sir
The enclosed land warrant No 33562 is granted to Lois Cook widow of William Cook.
She was in fact the widow of Warren Cook. I did not suppose that this mistake would make any difference with the value of the Warrant. But Mr. Cook the son of the old lady insists that I send it back & request you to have it corrected - He is a very particular man & I cannot persuade him that any other way will do. I therefore wish to have it corrected by striking out the name William & inserting Warren in the Warrant -
Respectfully your ob st servant

Sir
I send enclosed the declaration of Mrs. Lewis Cook for the purpose of procuring hereditary land -
The declaration was made some time since & it was not then forwarded for the reason that I supposed that I must prove the service and marriage de novo & I have been waiting for such proof - But within a few days I came across a circular of the Comr. of Pensions dated June 1855 & I conclude from the paragraph headed " evidence already furnished " that it is not necessary to furnish such evidence; as proof of the service of Warren Cook and the marriage of the widow with him is already in possession of the Department. She furnished it when she got placed on the pension list - To my knowledge she has drawn a pension a great many years.
Respectfully yours With thanks
