Sir

    Your letter of May 30th respecting the 
    Claims of Mrs James widow of Joseph
Mrs Cornell widow of Gideon,  Mrs Brayton
widow of Freeborn & Mrs Andrews widow
of Squire Andrews was duly [illegible] - As
to so much of your letter as related to the 
claims of Mrs Andrews & Mrs Cornell fur=
=ther testimony is herewith endorsed which
I hope will be satisfactory- In your letter
you observe, as to the services of the husband
of Mrs Cornell, who was an officer in the 
Corps called the "Scituate Hunters" as that 
was an Independent Company there are
probably minutes of their proceedings
which would throw much light on their
service in the revolution" In [illegible]
to which I have to say that from inquiring 
I believe every vestige of these proceedings
The company was dissolved before
Page 33

the was ended. probably in 1779 & their
records are now no where to be found-
I beg leave to add one word as to the services
of Gideon Cornell as Cornet of the Troop of
Horse in August 1780 which I think will
leave no doubt, but what he served as such
even if there had been no [illegible] [illegible]
He & the rest of the officers of the Troop were
at the time appointed by the Council
of War and they, very seldom, if [illegible], exer=
=cised this power, unless in cases of emer=
=gency when actual service was wanted The
power of appointment was certified [illegible] [illegible]
for this purpose- From the manner of his
appointment, therefore, this service might be
refined if there had been no other [illegible].
    As to the services in the Scituate Hunters
I believe you have the Secretary's certificate
of his appointment as Lieutenant in June 1775
& Act 1776 & as Captain in May 1777 & Aug
1778 & his services in these grades [illegible]
as to time & station during these years
Page 34

I regret to add that one of the [illegible]
Mrs [illegible] has deceased since his deposition
was taken & Samuel Kimball is not in
the State, but I hope & trust the services
of Gideon Cornell are currently stated in
their deposition & that a certificate will
he granted, she is I am informed a 
very deserving woman -
                     I am respectfully
                             your [illegible]

Gentlemen:--

In re Squire Andrews Pension Claim.
No 1
Rev Sec
I have recently made application for membership to the Gaspee Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, Providence, Rhode Island. Mypape rs are now in the hands of the National Society, D. A. R. at Washington, D. C. Letter has been received from said Society by the Registrar of Gaspee Chapter, Mrs. Alonzo Flint, who in turn has written me quoting
what they say is necessary to complete  data, which is as follows: "Since the service of the pensioner ( Squire Andrews) is claimed" a "statement" (not certificate is required."
Squire Andrews was my great-grandfather. Knowing he had been granted a pension I visited the State House, Providence, R. I. found the required information then went to the Historical Society for verification;
below is copy of pension paper on file there:
" Squire Andrews born in Glocester, R. I. April 15th, 1750, died in Glocester, November 6th, 1828, in 78th year. Served in War of the Revolution, Col. Daniel Hitchcock's regiment of Rhode Island. Pension applied
April 21st, 1818, transmitted June 20th, sent again granted, transmitted
August 14th, schedule May term 1820, granted. Military Papers, Rhode Island
Historical Society, Volume 1, page 191, first paper."
There are five volumes of these Military papers, and this was found in the fifth and last volume. I was told that his widow also received a
pension, she having survived him.
