I  Isaac Cady of Kingston in the County Addison and State of Vermont, on oath declare and, that I served in the army of the United States in the war of the Revolution on the continental establishment as a soldier against the common enemy, until the end thereof. That is to say, in the month of May or June in the year 1781, I enlisted into the service of the United States, in the company of Capt Moody Dustin, in the Regiment of Col Henry Dearborn in the New Hampshire line for the term of three years and from the date of my enlistment, until the end of the war, in AD 1783. I did my duty faithfully and had an honourable discharge, and which, I believe, is lost. 
I am a resident citizen of the United States, and am in reduced circumstances, and need assistance from my Country for support.

Dear Madam;

I advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 39271, it appears that Isaac Cady was engaged by the town of Alstead, New Hampshire, served as a private in Captain Moody Dustin's Company, Colonel Henry Dearborn's New Hampshire Regiment, and was discharged from the "American Regiment" by Henry Jackson, Brigadier General, on June 30, 1784, having enlisted for three years and having served for about two years and three months, exact date of enlistment not given.
He was allowed pension on his application executed April 8, 1818, while living at Kingston, Allison County, Vermont.
In 1820, he was fifty-six years old and referred to his wife, aged fifty years but did not give her name. He then stated that they
had eighteen children, seven of whom were dead, the only names stated being Harry, aged eighteen, Alvin aged fifteen, James aged ten, Abigail Victoria aged five and Benjamin Jenne aged three years.

Due to the very large number of requests similar to yours, and the lack of a clerical force available for the purpose, the Bureau is unable to make immediate reply to each inquiry pertaining to soldiers of the Revolution.
Letters are being answered as rapidly as possible in order of receipt.
Very truly yours,
R. W. Morgan

That he the said Isaac Cady, enlisted for the term of three years in the month of June, as he thinks, 1781, in the company commanded by Capt Moody Dustin, in the regiment commanded by Colonel Dearborn, in the line of the State of New Hampshire, on the Continental Establishment, that he continued to serve in said Corps until the summer of 1784, as near as he can recollect, when he was discharged from the said service at West Point in the State of New York. That his discharge now in the War Department will more definitely explain his Service: That his name has been placed on the pension list, and dropped therefrom on account of his property. And in pursuance of the act of the 1st May 1820, I do solemnly swear, that I was a resident citizen of the United States on the 18th day of March 1818, and that I have not since that time by gift sale, or in any manner disposed of my property or any part thereof with intent thereby so to diminish it, as to bring myself within the provisions of an act of Congress, entitled "an act to provide for certain persons engaged in the land & naval service of the United States in the Revolutionary." passed on the 18th day of March 1818, and that I have not, nor has any person in trust for me any property or securities, contracts or debts due to me, nor have I any income other than what is contained in the Schedule hereto annexed and by me subscribed.

That since the exhibition of my first schedule, the following Changes hove has made in my  property
100 Acres of mountain land in Kingston &c. 75 acres of  which with house & buildings under a mortgage &c
The above mentioned 75 acres given up on the mortgage, to E. D. Briggs on the 9th day of April 1821.
20 acres unlocated Land in said Town
This was entered in the first Schedule under a mistake. the same being part of the hundred acres before mentioned
1 Old mare. Dead.
1 Horse Sold to Capt. Butler in the spring of 1822 for $50. in grain, salt & tea, which was consumed in the family.
1 Three year old Colt. Exchanged for another horse - which was sold to Lemuel Richardson - February 1821, for one cow & a pair of yearling Steer. The cow I sold to Eleazar Kendal, in April 1821, toward paying a note to Ebenr W. Judd for grave stones: The steer were sold to Chester Goodrich in December 1821, for a note I gave to Judge Painter for sheep I had of him to improve & return - amounting to about 30 dollars.

Page 20

only being in my possession at that time.
1 Calf Sold for labour.
4 Small hogs & 6 pigs. Fatted & killed for the use of the family.

The said deponent further states, that on the 9th day of April 1821, the money for which the mortgage given in the first schedule was [illegible] being due-E. D. Briggs the mortgagee, required that the title should be made absolute to him, and I quit claimed the equity of redemption to him the said Briggs. That the money due on the mortgage, which should have been stated, in the first schedule, to be 320, instead of 220 dollars, was more than the land would be sold for, and I supposed it better to discharge the equity of redemption, than to pay the necessary costs attending a foreclosure being wholly unable to raise the money if it had been for my interest. The remaining 25 acres of said land are of no use to assist in the support of myself & family, and cannot be sold for any but a very small amounts: That my health has failed since my former schedule & on account of a lameness in one leg & my debility, I am able to labour but little, that my wife and several of my family have been sick under the care of physicians, so that I am now reduced to extreme poverty and am unable, with my numerous & expensive family to subsist without the aid of charity.
