At the Battle of Brandywine Capt. Green was killed and a new Company formed in the same
Regt. as Joseph Powel was made the first sergent of this company. 
I frequently saw the said Joseph in the service
after the battle of Brandywine and while he 
was serving as a Sergent, but I cannot recollect
when or where -
I now recollect that I saw the said Joseph Powel at the Battle of Trenton in
the winter
before, who he belong to another company &
Regiment from that when he was at the
Brandywine, but when at Trenton I been in
very slight acquaintance with him. 
I have never applied for a pension
for the reason 
that I have never considered
myself in need of a pension.
and further say not not.
