[Footnote 3: Relating to allowances since March 4, 1841, of claims arising under the invasion of East Florida in 1812.] WASHINGTON, _June 22, 1841_. _To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States_: I have the honor to submit the accompanying correspondence between myself and the Hon. J. Burnet, J.C. Wright, and others, who arrived some days ago in this city as a committee on behalf of the people of Cincinnati for the purpose, with the assent of the family, of removing the remains of the late President of the United States to North Bend for interment. I have thought it to be my duty thus to apprise Congress of the contemplated proceedings. JOHN TYLER. WASHINGTON CITY, _June 16, 1841_. The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. DEAR SIR: The undersigned were appointed by the citizens and the city council of Cincinnati and by many of the surviving soldiers of the late war to apply to the widow and family of our distinguished fellow-citizen, the late President of the United States, for permission to remove his remains from the city of Washington to the State of Ohio for interment. They have made the application directed, and have received permission to perform that sacred trust. They have now the honor of reporting to you their arrival in this city, and of asking your approbation of the measure contemplated and your cooperation in carrying it into effect. We are fully aware of the high estimate you placed on the talents and virtues of our lamented friend and fellow-citizen, the late Chief Magistrate of the Union, whose friendship and confidence you possessed many years. We saw the tear fall from your eye and mingle with the tears of the nation when the inscrutable will of Heaven removed him from us. Knowing these things, we approach you with confidence, well assured that you will justly appreciate our motive for undertaking the mournful duty we have been deputed to perform, and that the same kind feeling which has marked your course through life will prompt you on this occasion to afford us your countenance, and, if necessary, your cooperation. If it meet your approbation, the committee will do themselves the honor of waiting upon you at the President's house at any hour you may please to designate. With high respect, we are, your friends and fellow-citizens, J. BURNET. J.C. WRIGHT. [AND 10 OTHERS.] WASHINGTON, _June 17, 1841_. J. BURNET, J.C. WRIGHT, AND OTHERS OF THE COMMITTEE.
