My dear Sir;

A friend of mine 
who is interested in the Estate of the late 
Col. George Nagle (supposed to be of the 
Penna Line) has understood that he 
has neither rec'd his Lands, nor pay from 
Government. Your attention in examining 
this Claim & communicating me the results 
would place your friend under additional 
thanks.

Your friend,
David D Wagener
