We report measurements of $\gamma$--ray spectra from muon capture on $^{35}$Cl. For the allowed Gamow--Teller transitions to the $^{35}$S$(2939, 3/2^+)$ state and the $^{35}$S$(3421, 5/2^+)$ state we obtained their capture rates, hyperfine dependences and $\gamma$--$\nu$ correlation coefficients. The capture rates and hyperfine dependences were compared to shell model calculations using the complete 1s--0d space and the universal SD interaction. With $g_p / g_a = 6.7$ and $g_a = -1.00$ (or $g_a = -1.26$) we found agreement of the model and the data at the 1--2 $\sigma$ level. However, we caution that the transitions are sensitive to $\ell = 2$ forbidden matrix elements.
