Dear Sir
Enclosed you will find a description of an old Revolutionary Soldier by name Jesse Warren as I obtained it from Commissioner Wm Lockraw. I would like if not asking to much another copy for one of the Descendants of his family. I give you the description thinking probably that it would be a help to you. I have your reply of June 25 th 1896. The terms of service do not seem to agree. Commissioner Wm Lockraw's account gives him credited for 51 months and 19 days and the one that I received from

You only gives him Credit for 2 Years actual service. He signed himself Jesse Warren at the time that his Pension was allowed, hoping to hear from you soon I remain
