I have lately received a certificate for a Pension in favor James Wran residing in this town - The term of service set forth in his declaration was always ten months which can if not already so, be substantiated - His certificate entitles him to $26.66 It seems there must be a mistake or the Department do not credit the declaration will you have the goodness to inform me how the case may be - Mr Wran is a very poor man & needs all that he can entitle himself to, he can offer further evidence if required
