I was seventy-one years of age on the fourth day of June last.  I am a cripple in the left hand occasioned by a wound received by a ball in the battle of White Plains in the state of New York & debilitated in body by reason of old age not able to do any labour in consequence of the wound in my left hand and old age.  My wife Susanna died last January who had been a cripple by the rheumatism upwards of nine years; I have two children living with me Samuel aged sixteen & Lydia aged nine years.  My son Samuel is sickly not able to do much work.  I served sixteen months in the revolutionary war and was discharged in consequence of the wound received i my left hand as above stated.  I make no use of ardent spirits unless prescribed by a physician for health or in case of sickness.  I am now in debt two hundred and fifty-nine dollars and fifty cents for clothing and for necessaries of life for myself and family to doctors for medicine and attendance on my said wife in her lifetime.  The above sum of two hundred and fifty nine dollars & fifty cents I now owe to my creditors.
