Sir,
I have to state, in reply to your letter of the 30 th ultimo, that it appears from the Muster Rolls of Cap t George Lambert's company of the 14 th Virginia Regiment, on file in this office, that Isaac Wade enlisted on the 12 th of February 1777, for one year - and his name is borne on the Rolls of Cap t Lambert's company up to December 1777. - In January 1778, Cap t Lambert appears to have been cashiered, and Cap t Cyrus L.

With regard to that part of your letter respecting the appointment of an Attorney to draw the arrears due a deceased pensioner, I have to state, that I do not consider an Attorney at all necessary, as any amount found due can be remitted to the claimants themselves, without the intervention of an Attorney - If however one should be appointed it may be done without reference to his residence.
