I, Isaac West, a resident citizen of the United States of America, an inhabitant of Jay in the County of Oxford and State of Massachusetts, do testify and say, that, in the month of April, seventeen hundred and seventy six, I enlisted into the army of the United States of America on the continental establishments for the term of one year as a private soldier in Capt. Daniel Lothrop's company, Col. Crafts' regiment in the Massachusetts line, which term of one year I fully served in said company, when I was verbally discharged. On the last of January A.D. 1782, I again enlisted into said army on the continental establishments for the term of three years, as a private soldier in Capt. Mills' company, Col. Joseph Vose's regiments, numbered one, Gen. Learned's brigade in the line aforesaid, in which company I continued to serve as aforesaid until the twenty fourth day of December A.D. 1783, when I received from Gen. H. Knox, an honorable discharge from the service, my company at this time being commanded by Ralph H. Bowler, who also signed my discharge; which discharge is herunto annexed. I further testify, that by reason of my reduced circumstances in life, I stand in need of assistance from my country for support, and that I am not borne on any pension list of the United States.
