Letter of inquiry
sent Dec 17/75

Elkton Kentucky
Sept 3rd 1874

Maj Genl Howe
Louisville Ky

Dear Sir
The heirs of Allen Allison or Ellison have applied to me to assist in getting bounty money coming to their father, which they understand is in your office. Since the application for Bounty Allen has died. Is it necessary to have an administrator appointed & what proof is necessary. The application was made in the name of Allen Ellison as father of James Kirkman Dec'd.

His proper name was Allison but I understand it is on your roll as Ellison

Yours most truly
F.H. Bristow
