Pennsylvania Artillery and was later commissioned Lieutenant and
Captain Lieutenant in the Fourth Regiment of Continental Artillery
commanded by Colonel Thomas Proctor, and served until the army was disbanded in 1783.
He was allowed pension on his application executed May 9,

In 1823 he referred to the following children: Agnes aged

Sir
The enclosed papers have been forwarded to me [illegible crossed out] for the purpose mentioned in Capt [Captain] Websters letter, which also is enclosed 
With respect to the both accounts, I can say something - Parks, Bruce & Tantlinger I know to be insolvent - Riddle I have not seen for many years. I have been frequently informed and believe that he is insolvent - It is my opinion that a bond signed by all four for 763 D R.  could not be sold to any broker within a hundred miles of Somerset for 25 cts [cents] -
As to my opinion of Capt [Captain] Websters poverty I refer to my certificate on file in your office - my opinion then appears now confirmed by the fact that his property could not sell to pay one fourth part of the Judgements against him
