Rejected, Singleton Rep t .

Cornelius Westfall of Lewis County, an applicant for a Pension. Declaration made in the Spring of 1834
Jacob J. Jackson of Lewis County, a Gentleman of Character & Substance) Says that Time That time past Westfall being at his house, and having previously heard that he had applied for a Pension, and that Subject being introduced in conversation, he Jackson told Westfall, "that in swearing that he had been a soldier in the Revolutionary war, he had sworn to a lie." Westfall replied, "You don't know as much as you think you do." Jackson then read and explained the Pension Law to Westfall, after which, Westfall said he had been imposed upon by "them fellows" that he had been made to believe that he was entitled to a Pension for services in the Indian war, that were carried on after the war of the Revolution had terminated. Westfall told Jackson, that Jonathan Wrenly "had" done his "business."
