Dr: Sirs
            I return to you the papers of Chas Waterman, an applicant for a pension. He is a resident of Belmont County Ohio and has, I understand, made the necessary declaration and procured the certificate required by the instructions from the Department, which have been forwarded to your office.  Oliver Applin is the only witness living, as far as he knows, who can collaborate his statement.  He resides in a different county and at a considerable distance from the applicant and his testimony in another form cannot be procured without a great deal of inconvenience and an expense which old Mr. Waterman is not able to bear.  He is aged and very infirm, and cannot be carried before a Judge in the County in which he lives to give his affidavit and the  residence of the nearest Judge is at such a distance that it is not in the power of the old gentleman to get [      ]  to go to his house. The only way in which his testimony can be procured, if it is deemed absolutely essential, will be by bringing him on board a steam boat to Wheeling which is, I believe, sixty or seventy miles from his residence.
Page 38

I have told the Revd Mr. Waterman, the son of the applicant, that under the special circumstances I hoped you would dispense with the necessity of having his affidavit taken in the more formal manner.
I hope you will feel yourself at liberty  on the evidence with which you are now furnished to issue the certificate -

Yours very rspy

        Dear Sir,
               When I was in Washington last month I called on you in regard to a pension for Mrs. Sarah Waterman who was pensioned up to March 1848 and you gave me a paper with a form for making application under the new act, for the Benefit of Widows, but on my return home I could find no one that could understand it, so as to make out her application, will you please send a printed Blank form if you have one for those that have been previously pensioned under the old act for widows. The instructions on the paper you gave me, states the full particulars of the Rank and term of years he served and in what company and officers [] []  Now as all the particulars of that kind are already on your Books when she was first pensioned, is it necessary that they should be given again? Please write to this place and not Oxford for I attend to business for her since I left as well as before.

Yours Respectfully

Col, J. L. Edwards

Dear Sir

         A few days ago we learnt by a letter from Mr. F.S. Evans a Clerk in the Pension offices, that the head of the Pension office had decided to pay to Sarah Waterman, the widow of Charles Waterman, her pension according to the act of the 7th of July 1838, which provides for that class of widows who married prior to the first of January 1794 and that she is now entitled to the same pension as her husband drew. Commencing the 4th of March 1836 up to March 1845 would be ($466.32) four hundred and sixty six dollars and thirty cents. From what Mr F. S. Evans stated I presume that as she has her husbands papers, that nothing further is necessary then to forward this her order for the amount due. He said for any information we wanted to write to you.
The Old lady is very poor and very much in need of money. She has not the means to employ an Attorney to attend to this. Your early attention to this will oblige her very much.

Sir
      Yours of the 20th was duly read, but we do not exactly understand it. You state that in order to sustain the claim under the Act of 1832, it will be necessary that the Connecticut [            ] certificate should be adduced of the terms of Service. But you do not say who is to furnish it, we supposed that the circumstances of Charles Waterman Claim, being allowed in his life, was all sufficient evidence of his service. All the papers of C Waterman [    ] sent by [  ] Gove Morrow to the Pension department, when Sarah Waterman made her declaration. You will please state if there is anything further for us to do and in what time will we be able to learn anything certain concerning the time the matter will be settled. We are very thankful for the early attention you have given the matter.
                              Yours Respectfully

    On this twenty second day of September 1834 before me the subscriber, a Justice of the Peace for the said county of Butler personally appeared Charles Waterman, who on his oath, declares that he is the same person who formerly belonged to the company commanded by Captain Webb     in the Regiment commanded by Colonel Sumper       in the service of the United States; that his name was placed on the pension role of the State of Pennsylvania from whence he has lately removed; that he now resides in the state of Ohio where he intends to remain and wishes his Pension to be there payable, in future. The following are his reasons for removing from Pennsylvania to Ohio. viz - that as both of his sons had removed to Butler County in the State of Ohio and he being quite aged and infirmed - he wished to go along with them as it was their particular wish that he should accompany them.

To the Hon. the Senate & House of Representatives of the United States.
         The petition of Charles Waterman of Belmont County in the State of Ohio represents that he is a native of Plainfield Township, Windham County in the State of Connecticut, at which place before & during the war of the Revolution his father Abraham Waterman with his family resided. That about the 2nd year of the war & when your petitioner was between 16 & 17 years of age he served in the Connecticut Militia about two months at New London in Captain Abraham Shepherd's company. That from the year 1779 to the best of his recollection, Connecticut raised troops by enlistment for eight months for the defense of the coast along the sound from New London to New York and your petitioner enlisted for said service in Captain Benjamin Bacon's company in a regiment commanded by Col. Masson. This eight month tour he served and at the termination at Stratford  in said state was discharged.
     Your petitioner further knows that in 1780 (to the best of his recollection) the said state of Connecticut made upon the difference Towns or Regime to a call requisition or request for Soldiers to take the place of some of the three years enlisted soldiers in the Continental line. Your petitioner with others of his neighbors then offered their service
Page 64

and were enlisted for eight or nine months, but for which period he is not certain, he thinks for eight months:  In the spring of said year your petitioner with others marched from home and joined in New Jersey on the North River the Connecticut line in the Continental service and he served during the campaign in Captain Webbs company in a regiment commanded by Colonel Sumner.  In about December of said year the Troops were marched to the high lands on the North river for winter quarters; and after the Barracks were completed, the new levies or troops of which your petitioner was one were discharged. Your petitioner had a regular discharge but lost the same many years ago.
        In 1781, or soon after General Arnold burnt New London, the state of Connecticut called for volunteers to repair the Fort & keep guard till the fort could be regularly supplied and your petitioner volunteered for two months & served said time in Captain Robins company in a regiment commanded by Col McClallen.
        Your petitioner is now utterly destitute of property and unable to work or gain a livelihood and has an aged & helpless wife. For the last years of his life he has been mainly supported by the industry of a son who died during the last summer.
            Your petitioner therefore been by consensus that as
Page 65

he thus served his country in her time of trial and distress and served then for almost nothing, that he may now in his old age and when he is without property justly appeal to her liberally for some support. He prays therefore to be placed on the pension roll [  ].

We the undersigned inhabitants of Washington County, Ohio, do certify that for several years we have been acquainted with Mr. Charles Waterman; that he sustains the character of a very honest and deserving man; that owing, as we understand, to various misfortunes, he has, at an advanced age of life, been reduced to very needy circumstances; that his sons, though heartily disposed to assist him, are not able to do much for his aid -- one of them on whom he mainly relied for support has been taken from him by death. Mrs. Waterman, his wife, is also very aged and infirm. Mr. Waterman, we understand, intends applying to the general government for a pension; and we hope he may succeed in obtaining one, being perfectly satisfied that his patriotism, his wants and his good character, render him highly deserving the bounty of his country.
