until he was discharged from service by said Hazen in Pompton in the State of New Jersey the last of May 1783 on a furlough, as and for a “during the wars man” and never was thereafterwards called upon, as the peace soon succeded, that he was in the battle at the taking of Lord Cornwallis in Virginia, and that he is in absotutely reduced circumstances and stands in need of the assistance of his country for support and that the evidence forwarded is all in his power of his said services. Sworn to and declared before me the day & year above written—

I Moses White of Lancaster in the County of
Coos and State of New Hampshire, do testify & say that I served as a Captain in the Revolutionary war in Colo. Moses Hazen's Regiment from the year 1776 until the close of the war; that I well remember, that Jeremiah 
Pamulee, now of Guildhall in the County of Essex and State of Vermont, served as a soldier in said Hazen's Regiment in the years 1781 & 1782. I do not recollect the exact time of his enlistment nor the officer who enlisted him, but well recollect of seeing him in the Regiment doing duty as a good & faithful soldier: Colo. Moses Hazen (I think in
the year 1780) was promoted a brevit to the rank of General, and when he commanded a Brigade or a separate Department Lieut Colo. Antill commanded our Regiment, called Hazen's Pox Congress Regiment-
