I Caleb Eddy of Wallingford in the County of Rutland and State 
of Vermont aged sixty eight years being duly sworn, depose & say
that in January 1776 I enlisted as a private soldier at Scituate 
in the State of Rhode Island, into Col. Hitchcocks Regiment, 
Capt Stephen Kimball's Company in the Rhode Island line in 
the Continental establishment, for one year, and served one full
year in said Regiment against the Common enemey, and was
honorably discharged, had a discharge signed by Col. Hitchcock
which I have long since lost, and cannot now produce it.
When my time expired for the above enlistment I again
enlisted as a private soldier into Col. Israel Angels Regiment, Capt. William Hewes
Company, in the Rhode Island line in the Continental Establishment
for the term of three years at Scituate aforesd. Under my last
enlistment I served three years & fourteen days, mostly in the
State of New Jersey, was at Red Bank, lay most of one summer
with the army at Peekskill. I was left behind the army at
Trenton in New Jersey sick, and never had a regular discharge
furnished me for my last term of service.
I further testify and say that I am now & always have been a Resident Citizen of the United States, and that by reason of my reduced
Circumstances in life, I am in need of assistance from my Country
for support.
