     This is to certify that after a careful examination of the preceding declaration an oath of Robert Lorick and of the subjoined certificate of Allen McLane Esq of the state of Delaware, it appears
Page 22

to my satisfaction that the said Robert Levick served from sometime in the year 1780 to the termination of the revolutionary war, as a private, on the continental establishment, against the common enemy;  I further certify that my personal knowledge of Robert Levick, that he is in very reduced circumstances in life, that he has a large family of young children dependence on his labour for support and that he merits and needs the assistance of his country for support.  I herewith transmit the testimony in his case, on application for a pension, and the providings had thereon.
     Given under my hand this third day of April eighteen hundred and eighteen.

(The following is written upside down and the paper is folded to hide the beginning.)

A.D. Present me respectfully to Levick, tell him I have no doubt he will receive the eight dollars, the Law of the 18 Inst. provides for him. The Secretary of War has the power to grant it, he feels sensibly for the old Continental Soldier.  It will add to their comfort all in his power. If Congress had been made up of such men as Mr. Calhoun, the men that served to the end of the war would not have been elapsed with those that deserted us after the first year of service or after serving but nine months and perhaps after receiving three hundred dollars a reward not rendering any service.

Dear Sir, 
     By this day's mail I received yours of the 29th instant inquiring as to Robert Levick's 
enlistment as a soldier in the Army raised for the Continental service.  I have a perfect 
recollection that Robert Levick was enlisted in 1780 and that he served faithfully in the Infantry annexed to Lee's Legion which I commanded under a resolution of Congress of July 1779 and that he marched with the Legion in January 1781 to the South, but I was transferred to the Army commanded by Baron Steuben near Portsmouth Virginia & had no intercourse with the Legion after this period – but it gives me satisfaction to inform Robert or those that are disposed to serve him that Captain George Handy formerly of Lee's Legion resides in Princess Anne, near Snow Hill, State of Maryland. 
     I am distressed to learn that Robert is in indigent circumstances and that he has to 
struggle through those ungrateful times to raise a family of six young children while the mass of the people he fought to make independent suffer him to wade through the vile mire of dependence – 
     I feel the subject to sensibly to dwell on it.  I thank you for the attention you have 
paid to the poor soldier, such services must receive its reward in heaven if neglected on earth.  Any service I can rendered you I pray you to command it. 
                            With sincere regards 
                            I am your Obedient Servt

A.D. Present me respectfully to Levick, tell him I have no doubt he will receive the eight dollars, the Law of the 18 Inst. provides for him.

If Congress had been made up of such men as Mr. Calhoun, the men that served to the end of the war would not have been elapsed with those that deserted us after the first year of service or after serving but nine months and perhaps after receiving three hundred dollars a reward not rendering any service.

JL Edwards
Commissioner of Pensions
Sir
     I received yesterday from the Hon LC Elmer and herewith enclose to you the declaration &c necessary from Mrs. Levick widow of the late Robert Levick to obtain a pension under the late act.
     There is no doubt of the genuineness of the claim - I am personally acquainted with all the witnesses except Lydia Levick and know them all to be respectable and credible.  Mrs. Levick is very infirm and I ask you would take up the case as soon as you conveniently can.
                    Very respectfully,
                     Yours &c
                           J.G. Hampton

The following persons claim Military Land Warrants for having served as Soldiers during the revolutionary War.  

     Henry Fewver or Fauver who served as a soldier during the war in the first Jersey Reg't as appears by the certificate from Sam'l. M Shute who was a Lieutenant in the Jersey Brigade.  He hold his discharge given when the Troops were disbanded.
     Robert Levick who served as a Soldier in Lt. Colo. Lee's Legion as appears by the final furlough signed by Capt. Rudolph.
     John Ryley who served & was sounded in Lt. Colo. Lee's Legion as appears by the Certificate of Capt. Heard.
     James Donohoo & John Robinson both of whom served during the War in Col. Lee's Legion.  Their discharges are lost & no certificate of their service from an officer has been received, but as Genl Lee is now in Philadelphia I expect they will obtain certificates from him & transmit them to the War Office on some future day.
