When Congress Passed the act of 1818, Grant- ing Compensation to the Revolutionary Soldiers; I made my Report to the War office; & my name was entered on the Pension Role, at the rate of Eight Dollars per month, & I received the pay for one year & a half as high as I can remember. - & after 1820 I discontinued to Report myself, to the War office, until 1827. Because the People thought that Congress Passed the act only for the benefit of Paupers, & that I was able to support myself, without the aid of Congress. — But it is difficult with me now as I am old and feeble & unable to provide for myself, having received a shot, from the Cannon of the Enemy at the battle of Quaker hill, in Rhode Island, upon Rhode Island, in 1778 which carried away part of the Crown of my head, & gave my head such a shock, as to make me entirely deaf with one ear & also affected one of my eyes, that I cannot see to read with it & have not for this several years. — and further it appears that the People have had time to reflect & to view the act of Congress in its true sense & meaning, it was not for the benefit of Paupers; it was an act of justice it was a debt due to the Soldiers for the Service done his Country. The Soldier who served faithfully in the Cause for independence, & has been industrious since & has supported him- self, & paid taxes, for the support of government. — is intitled to compensation, as well as the Pauper. I served my Country in the struggle for independence

From 1777 1778 1779 1780 & 1781 & was taken Prisoner at the battle at the White Plains State . & Remained in confine- ment within a few days of a year. — If this request can be granted, I wish you would inform me, I can produce the proper evidence to prove what I have here stated which the law requires. — your compliance with this request will confer an obligation upon your Humble Servt.
