I believe the enclosed applications are entitled to pensions under the Law of  -?- March Capt. (?). I knew all the -?- except Stutt and Ramsay of the Maryland line - Genl.  -?- however informed that they were officers in the Maryland line of the continental army.

 The signatures to the Depositions are omitted by Judge Budd, he being of the opinion, their declaration under Oath before him sufficient - I hope these all will be the last I shall receive -  if certificates can be issued, I shall be glad to forward them to Judge Budd.
