Dear Sir
Enclosed I send you the required Certificate of marriage in the case of Mary Hitchcock, an applicant for a pension as the Widow of Abel Hitchcock - Before sending on the original papers I wrote to the Post Master of Woodbridge to ascertain if any records of marriages exists in that town - if so to write me - but never getting any answer concluded that none existed, & accordingly the affidavit of the applicant & witnesses was procured, stating as near as they could recollect the day of the marriage - The day is not stated positively in those affidavits. You will perceive however that they vary but one day from the record proof - that is the affts. say the 3 rd or 4 th & the Certificate proves it to be the 2 nd of Oct. 1788. This I suppose will not be material, as it is not singular that people so far should not recollect the precise day, especially, as they have no family record, or memorandum to refer to - You will see also that the affidavits speak of the marriage as occurring at Woodbridge - The Certificate shows it was at that time a Parish called Amity, but was the next year erected into the Town of Woodbridge & I understand by letter from the minister that it was so erected into the Town of W. the 8 th day of Jany. 1784 which would only be about 3 months after the marriage - & it would not therefore be supposed that the witnesses should recollect whether it was just called Woodbridge before or after that time - At any rate 'tis not a material discrepancy, & is very natural for the applicant to fall into after so long a lapse of time, & I suppose will not affect the application, as there is none no doubt about the time, place &c of the marriage - All other necessary points of proof I believe are before the department - As over 4 months elapsed after sending in the application before I received any answer to them (though I wrote several times) I hope the department will act upon the case soon - & forward me her Certificate, as the widow is old, feeble & very poor, & needs the pittance to render her comfortable -
Respectfully Yours

Almon Marks, being duly sworn, Says, that he has just received from the Hon. R. D. Sylvester, Member of Congress from this District, the letter of Hon. J. L. D. Read Commissioner of Pensions, of December 20, 1848, addressed to him, & which states, that "the Pension Certificate of Mrs Mary Hitchcock, was issued, on the 11 th of September last, & sent to A. Marks Drunkem, Greene County N.Y." - that this deponent has never received any such Certificate, either through the mail, or otherwise, that the Post Office at Drunkem is kept, in the store of this deponent, which is in the charge of his Partner, Ariel Bradley, who is Assistant Postmaster; that all letters & packages coming for deponent, are all immediately upon their arrival, either called for by deponent, or sent to my office, which is but a few rods from the Post Office - that deponent has made enquiry of his office Partner, if he has known of any such letter coming, or being in his office, in his absence, who informs him, he has never seen any - deponent has searched his office for such letter, & particularly the "Pigeon Hole," where he keeps all his pension papers, & letters pertaining to them - the Pension Department can command him any such letter or Pension Certificate - that in answer to his application for a Pension Certificate, for Anna Francis & Elizabeth Wright, were sent by deponent, to the Pension Department, with the application of Mrs Hitchcock, the last of August last - that the Certificates of Mrs Francis & Wright, were received, addressed to him, early in October last in separate envelopes - that in consequence of the non-receipt of Mrs Hitchcock's Certificate, deponent soon after wrote to the Pension Department, & enquired in relation to the reasons, why her Certificate was not sent - has also once or twice since, written to said depart- ment, making similar enquiry, stating that such Certificate

ate, had not been received, to which letter, deponent has not received any answer - deponent supposing that the large amount of letters, & business of the department, prevented an immediate reply to such enquiries - but in consequence of the anxiety of Mrs. Hitchcock, to obtain her pension, deponent again wrote to the Hon. Mr. Sylvester, to make the necessary enquiries, at the department, & to whose enquiries the following answer has been sent me - The deponent says, that he cannot account for the non arrival of said Certificate, that he has examined the packages & papers in the post office, at Durham, & procured the assistant postmaster, to examine such papers, & that no such Certificate or letter containing the same can be found in said office, as appears by the affidavit of said assistant postmaster, hereto annexed - deponent therefor asks, in behalf of the Pensioner, to have a new Certificate issued in her behalf, if consistent with the rules & regulations of the department -

Dear Sir
Your letter of
16 th December 1848 in relation to petition sent you was duly rec d - for your attention to the matter I am much obliged to you - And the Commission of Pension letter to you of the 20 th inst. was rec d yesterday -
I can't conceive how the Certificate sent me from New Providence, as I can hardly believe it possible that it ever arrived here, as all mail matter is indirectly passed here, as will appear by enclosed affidavits, which I send, asking if you will have the goodness to send them into the department - I do not suppose in a matter of this kind it would be important to sent the affidavits to the Clerk, for Certificate of County Judge's Official Signature - you are familiar with that - but if necessary they can be sent back for that purpose - Can there be any harm in issuing a 2 nd Certificate - Of course the department could notify the Pension Agency at Albany of the 2 nd issue, & no fraud could be perpetrated by any presentation of a Clergy then under the last Certificate - The old lady is a worthy & needy Recvline, & it would be hard for her to be kept longer out of her Pension by any technicalities - Should the affidavits, or any other explanation be required, it can be sent -
