Dear Sir
My father George Wiseman was a Revolution- ary soldier. He has been dead some 33 years. Some 10 or 12 years since there was an effort made to obtain a pension, My brother George Wiseman gave a power of an attorney to Mr Adam Balle r I think, Who after some time told us that he had ascertained that a small amount of money could be had as a pension, but the amt was so small that it was not worth while to attend to it. So the matter has lain without any further investigation until the present time, — The object of this, is to solicit you to to make some examination relative to the matter, and ascertain whether it has been obtained by any person, and if so, who got it , or whether it may still be ob- tained by us, and if so what proceedings are necessary in order to obtain it.
Your attention and answer will much oblige
Yours Respectfully

Sir - Permit us whose names are hereunto subscribed That you would make applications to the war department to have George Weiseman replaced on the pension list, as we have understood that he has been struck off, and his present circumstance, and declining years will not admit of it; Mr Weiseman has been a faithful and true Soldier during the revolutionary war, and served his Country with honor to himself, We therefore the inhabi- tants of Juniata and Greenwade townships, Humbly beg of you Sir - to have George Weiseman replaced and your petitioners would ever pray &c

Sir,
Your letter of the 27 th ultimo, containing a certificate of the Sheriff, relative to the sale of George Wiseman's real estate, accompanied by his schedule of property, are herewith returned to you. It appears, that at the time the schedule was made before the court for the county of Cumberland , the applicant was a resident of the county of Perry . The law requires the schedule to be made in the county where the applicant resides . It will be necessary, therefore, in this case, that the applicant do make a new schedule, and have the same duly executed before the court for Perry county .
I am, Sir,

Inclosed is the declaration of Geo Wrenn to be restored to his Pension. & the acts of Congress will admit of the Secretary of War exercising a discretionary Power to restore Wrenn as of the Date he was stricken for the Pension but no case calls louder for such an act than that of Poor Wrenn his friends who and Poor also her struggles to keep him from the Poor- house - if not of the time Probably it will ad- mit of being restored as of the Date of the sale of his property by the Sheriff - you will see that Wrenn's share in Perry County, but it was all in Cumberland in 1818 & 1820

and it was thought that all the application ought to be in the same Court unless the Dillerants herein involved you were the whole is stated in the Pleadings of the Docket in record.

Dear Sir
It is a very strange fact that with the views that I should regard the unstatement of George Nesiman just as if I had the power
But I assure you that if I had the power I would do it. I have known Nesiman these twenty years past & he is a Worthy & meritorious Soldier.
He was struck off on account of his property he has 300 or 400 of Land a small part of which is fit for cultivation say 5 or 6 acres or there abouts the land lies running up on the Tuscarora Mountain that is not worth paying taxes for

I believe in some instances remittances have taken place and I can assure you that the War Department that this is one of those cases that ought to be considered or 4000 of Land warrants large, but you will know what 4000 of Land on the face of the North Mountain is worth
I will never represent a case to the War Department that I believe does not fairly come within the provisions of the acts of Congress, nor will I state in the strong terms I have done here but when I know the facts as I do in this case
You will find me very troublesome on account of old soldiers they are almost in this I carry off to me as the all personally know me
The signers to the enclosed I am personally acquainted with and I can assure you that

They are very disputable men who all know Wisconsin personally & would not profit by his unintention unless he was absolutely knavish
