Providence Dec 3 1855
Dear Brother,
Having been acquainted with the Mr Warner, mentioned in the preceding note of Mr Cook, for the last twenty or more years, he wished me to add a few lines, and ask your particular attention to the matter of concerns. As he has been in the receipt of a pension, as I have understood for quite a while, and if he should be entitled to any, he is very much in need of it. He has a certificate recorded as he has written, calling for thirty Dollars a year.
Your package I rec d , and have intended to write you, but I am so much occupied in my business, that I find but little time to do so, but will soon. All well here, and at B. the last I heard from them

He is now on the pension list - which was granted him on the thirteenth of September 1833 to commence from the 4 th of March 1831. He was a a Revolutionary Soldier & supposes himself entitled to receive pension moneys from a date previous to that from which it is granted. His certificate is recorded in the Pension Office in Book E. Vol 4 Page 39. You will please inform me how his pension matters stand. The amount he annually receives is thirty dollars.
