July 15, 1956 Dear Mr. Carswells Mr. T. N. Carswell 1554 Pine Street Abilene, Texas Merle Sinclair 2115 EAST OLIVE STREET MILWAUKEE 11, WISCONSIN The American Legion Magazine has forwarded your request about the signers of the Declaration of Independence, and I’m sorry to say that I do not have any one document that I could send you cover- ing the lives of all of them. My article was written from a great many notes that are not in any orderly form. However, one of my sources of material may be available to you. It is a little booklet put out by the Prudential Insurance Company of America, published by The Prudential Press, Newark, New Jersey, which has a nice little biography about each signer. I think it is very likely that this publisher would have a copy to spare for you, even though it is several years since the booklet was put out. Sincerely, I hope you can get one and that it will meet your needs. I’m sorry I can’t be of further help to you.
