Honbl J C Colhoun Secretary of War, Sir
In compliance with the wish of Andrew McCausland late a Lieutenant in the Army of the Revolution I enclose his certificate of Pensions and at his instance have to make known his desire that his pension should be made payable at this office. He represents the he expressed his desire, at the time it was issued, that he should receive his pension at this place, and that it has been made payable at Savannah through mistake.
At this time Navy and Privateers pensions only are paid at this office, as there are however many pensioners in this state, to whom it would be more convenient as well as less expensive to receive their claims here, than at Richmond I avail myself, of this aception to say, that I would cheerfully take upon my self the discharge of any duties, which may promote their interest or your views on this subject.
I am with great respect yourobtservt Geo Newton [illegible]
