F. E. Hassler Esqr.

Dear Sir,

Your letter of the 3rd September last directed to Capt. David Wilson his widow, or heirs was put in my hand (to answer) by  his son William Wilson, the letter was mislaid and I had entirely forgotten that I had been requested to answer it. I happened to put my hand on it a few (??) since. And I now sit down to say to you, that my Uncle Capt. David Wilson was in the receipt of a pension a number of years before his Death which was on 22d July 1846 in the 95th year of his age having survived his wife a number of years. Some 2 or 3 years before his death, a traveling agent of obtaining pensions persuaded the old gentleman to give him a power of Attorney, promising to obtain for him back pay for revolutionary service, learning soon afterwards that Barrack the person to whom he gave the power was a person not to be trusted. I procured the said Power from Barrack.
I had some agency in procuring for my Uncle the Pension being then a Member of Congress, from this district, I feel pretty confident that there is nothing more due to Capt. David Wilson, never the less if you should take the trouble to re-examine and find that a further sum is due to the heirs  (which you are authorized to do so) You can have no difficulty in agreeing with the Heirs about your compensation.
Very respectfully your Obt. sert.
James Wilson

Dear Sirs:

Capt. David Wilson (an Uncle of mine) an old Soldier 94 years of age who is on the pension roll gave a power of Attorney through much importunity, to a certain Jacob Barrich Who professes to be a general agent for pensioners. Alledging to him the said David Wilson that there was an increase due to him on the books at Washington subsequent and better acquaintance with the said Barrich induces him to revoke the power given him and he desires me to say to your department that if there be any thing due to him he will seek it through other agencies than that of Barrich--I hope to be at Washington in the course of three weeks when I will see you on the subject.
With perfect esteem your friend
