Rutherfordton NC. Sept. 10 '40
J. L. Edwards Esqr
Comm: Pension
Washington City:
The application of Sarah Jenkins for a pension as widow of John Jenkins is returned with the alterations and additions suggested in your letter directed to James Roberts the date of which I do not recollect I think it was directed to him at Swangstown Rutherford County N.C. You will find endorsed upon it 6532 by which you will be able to refer to the files in the Department where your letter can doubtless be found.
Your early attention to the case is earnestly solicited, and you will please communicate to me at this place the result of Mrs Jenkins' application.
I am Sir
Very respectfully
