REGULATIONS UNDER THE ACT OF JUNE 7, 1832.
The following regulations have been adopted:
This law has been construed to extend, as well to the line, as to every branch of the Staff of the Army, and to include under the terms "Continental Line," "State troops," "militia," and "volunteers," all persons enlisted, drafted, or who volunteered and who were bound to military service, but not those who were occasionally employed with the army upon civil contracts, such as Clerks to Commissaries and to Store Keepers, &c. Teamsters, Boatmen, &c. Persons who served on board of Private Armed Vessels are also excluded from the benefits of the law, as well as persons who turned out as patrols, or were engaged in guarding particular places at night, and were not recognized as being in actual military service.
Four general classes of cases are embraced in this law:
 1. The Regular Troops.  2. The State Troops, Militia, and Volunteers.  3. Persons employed in the Naval service.  4. Indian Spies. 
As rolls of the regular troops in the Revolutionary War exist in this Department, all persons, claiming the benefit of this law as officers, non-commissioned officers, musicians or privates, will in the first instance, make application by transmitting the following declaration, which will be made before a Court of Record of the County where such applicant resides. And every Court having by law a seal and Clerk is considered a Court of Record.

That he enlisted in the Army of the United States in the year (d) _____, with _____ and served in the _____ (e) regiment of the _____ line, under the following named officers:
[Here set forth the names and rank of the Field and Company Officers; the time he left the service; (and if he served under more than one term of enlistment, he must specify the particular period, and rank and names of his officers;) the town or county and State in which he resided when he entered the service; the battles, if any, in which he was engaged, and the country through which he marched. [This form is to be varied so as to apply to the cases of officers and persons who belonged to the militia, volunteers, navy, &c.]
He hereby relinquishes every claim (f) whatever to a pension or an annuity, except the present, and he declares that his name is not on the Pension Roll of any Agency in any State, or (if any) only on that of the Agency in the State of _____
Sworn to and subscribed the day and year aforesaid.
A. B.
[And then will follow the certificate of the Court.]
And the said Court do hereby declare their opinion (g) that the above named applicant was a revolutionary soldier, and served as he states.
I _____ of the Court of _____ do hereby certify (h) that the foregoing contains the original proceedings of the said Court in the matter of the application of _____ for a pension.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal of office (i) this day of _____ &c.
If, on examination of the proper record the names of applicants, making such declaration, cannot be found, they will produce such proof as the rule given in note (j) points out.
Every applicant who claims a pension by virtue of service in the State Troops, Volunteers or Militia, except those who belonged to the New Hampshire Militia and State Troops of Virginia, will make and subscribe a declaration similar to the foregoing, with the following additions, viz:
(k) We, A. B., a Clergyman, residing in the _____ and C. D. residing in (the same) _____ hereby certify, that we are well acquainted with _____, who has subscribed and sworn to the above declaration; that we believe him to be _____ years of age; that he is reputed and believed, in the neighborhood where he resides, to have been a soldier of the Revolution, and that we concur in that opinion.
Sworn and subscribed the day and year aforesaid.
[And then will follow the certificate of the Court.]
And the said Court do hereby declare their opinion, after the investigation of the matter, and after putting the interrogatories prescribed by the War Department, that the above named applicant was a Revolutionary Soldier, and served as he states. And the Court further certifies, that it appears to them that A. B.
who has signed the preceding certificate is a clergyman, resident in the _____ and that C. D., who has also signed the same is a resident in the _____ and is a credible person, and that their statement is entitled to credit.
I, _____ Clerk of the Court of _____ do hereby certify that the foregoing contains the original proceedings of the said Court, in the matter of the application of _____ for a pension.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal of office, this _____ day of _____ &c.
Every applicant will produce the best proof in his power. This is the original discharge or commission; but if neither of these can be obtained, the party will so state under oath, and will then procure, if possible, the testimony of at least one credible witness, stating in detail his personal knowledge of the services of the applicant, and such circumstances connected therewith, as may have a tendency to throw light upon the transaction.
If such surviving witness cannot be found, the applicant will so state in his declaration (l) and he will also, whether he produce such evidence or not, proceed to relate all the material facts, which can be useful in the investigation of his claim, and in the comparison of his narrative with the events of the period of his alleged service, as they are known at the Department. A very full account of the services of each person

will be indispensable to a favorable action upon his case. The facts stated will afford one of the principal means of corroborating the declaration of the applicant, if true, or of detecting the imposition, if one be attempted; and unless, therefore, these are amply and clearly set forth, no favorable decision can be expected. All applicants will appear before some Court of Record in the County, in which they reside, and there subscribe and be sworn to, one of the declarations above provided, according to the nature of his case.
The Court will propound the following (m) interrogatories to all applicants for a pension, on account of service in the Militia, State troops, or Volunteers, except the Militia of New Hampshire and the State troops of Virginia.
 1. Where and in what year were you born?  2. Have you any record of your age, and if so, where is it?  3. Where were you living when called into service; where have you lived since the Revolutionary war, and where do you now live?  4. How were you called into service; were you drafted, did you volunteer, or were you a substitute? And if a substitute, for whom?  5. State the names of some of the Regular Officers, who were with the troops, where you served; such Continental and Militia Regiments as you can recollect, and the general circumstances of your services.  6. { To a Soldier. { Did you ever receive a discharge from the service, and if so, by whom was it given and what has become of it? { To an Officer. { Did you ever receive a commission, and if so, by whom was it signed, and what has become of it?  7. State the names of persons to whom you are known in your present neighborhood, and who can testify as to your character for veracity, and their belief of your services as a soldier of the Revolution. 
The Court will see that he answers to these questions are embodied in the declaration, and they are requested to annex their opinions of the truth of the statement of the applicant.
The applicant will further produce in Court, if the same can be done, in the opinion of the Court, without too much expense and inconvenience to him, two respectable persons—one of whom should be the nearest clergyman, if one lives in the immediate vicinity of such applicant, who can testify, from their acquaintance with him, that they believe he is of the age he represents, and that he is reputed and believed in the neighborhood to have been a Revolutionary soldier, and that they concur in that opinion. If one of these persons is a Clergyman, the Court will so certify, and they will also certify, to the character and standing of other persons, giving such certificates.
The traditional evidence of service is deemed very important, in the absence of any direct proof, except the declaration of the party. And the Courts are requested to be very particular in the enquiry whether the belief is general, and whether any doubts have ever existed upon the subject.
Applicants unable to appear in Court by reason of bodily infirmity, may make the declaration before required, and submit to the examination, before a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record of the proper county, and the Judge or Justice will execute the duties, which the Court is herein requested to perform, and will also certify that the applicant cannot, from bodily infirmity, attend the Court.
Whenever any official act is required to be done by a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record, or by a Justice of the peace, the certificate of the Secretary of State or Territory, or of the proper Clerk of the Court or County, under his seal of office, will be annexed, stating that such person is a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record, or a Justice of the Peace, and that the signature annexed is his genuine signature.
No payments can be made on account of the services of any person, who may have died before the taking effect of the act of June 7, 1832; and in case of death subsequent thereto, and before the declaration herein required is made, the parties interested will trans nit such evidence as they can procure, taken and authenticated before a Court of Record, showing the services of the deceased, the period of his death, the opinion of the neighborhood respecting such services, the title of the claimant, and the opinion of the Court upon the whole matter.
[a] The declarant must appear in open Court, unless prevented from doing so by reason of bodily infirmity; in which case the declarant will follow the rule laid down for his guidance.
[b] The declarant must make his declaration in the county where he resides. If he should fail to do so, he must assign a sufficient reason for not conforming to the rule.
[c] The age of the claimant must invariably be mentioned.
[d] The declarant must mention the period or periods of the war when he served.
[e] Every continental officer or soldier must give the name of the Colonel under whom he served; otherwise a satisfactory examination of the claim cannot be had. Every claimant must state, with precision, the length of his service, and the different grades in which he served, in language so definite as to enable the Department to determine to what amount of pension he is entitled. In a case where the applicant cannot, by reason of the loss of memory, state precisely how long he served, he should amend his declaration by making an affidavit in the following words:
"Personally appeared before me, the undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, &c. A. B. who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that, by reason of old age, and the consequent loss of memory, he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service; but, according to the best of his recollection, he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the following grades:—For _____ year _____ months, and _____ days, I served as a _____. For _____ months and _____ days, I served as a _____; and for such service I claim a pension."
It is important, in all cases, to determine with precision the period for which each applicant served, and the particular rank he held, as the law directs the pension to be paid according to the grade of the pensioner and the length of his service. The use of the phrase about three or four months , is too indefinite, and all such qualifying expressions are objectionable. Some persons who apply for pensions merely state that they served two years in the militia, &c. without specifying the tours, the names of the officers, and other particulars respecting their service. This form of a declaration is highly objectionable. It must, in every case, be clearly shown under what officers the applicant served; the duration of each term of engagement; the particular place or places where the service was performed; that the applicant served with an embodied corps called into service by competent authority; that he was either in the field or in garrison; and for the time during which the service was performed, he was not employed in any civil pursuit.
[f] The law makes the relinquishment indispensable.
[g] The opinion of the Court is always required.
[h] The Clerk must give his certificate in every case.
[i] The Clerk must affix his seal, and if it has no device or inscription by which it can be distinguished from any other seal, or if he has no public seal of office, the certificate of a Member of Congress, proving the official character and signature of the certifying officer, should accompany the papers.
Mode of authenticating papers.
In every instance where the certificate of the certifying officer who authenticates the papers is not written on the same sheet of paper which contains the affidavit, or other papers authenticated, the certificate must be attached thereto by a piece of tape or narrow ribbon, the ends of which must pass under the seal of office of the certifying officer, so as to prevent any paper from being improperly attached to the certificate.
Proof of Service.
[j] In a case where the name of the applicant is not found on the records of the Department, he must prove his service by two credible witnesses, who are required to set forth in their affidavits the time of the claimant's entering the service, and the time and manner of his leaving the same, as well as the regiment, company, and line to which he belonged. The magistrate who may administer the oaths must certify to the credibility of the witnesses, and the official character and signature of the magistrate must be certified by the proper officer, under his seal of office.
[k] The notes from [a] to [i] are all equally applicable to the cases of Militia men, Volunteers and State Troops. The proof required by rule in note [j] applies to continental troops only.
[l] This traditional evidence is indispensable in militia cases.
[l] If a witness cannot be found, the declarant must state the fact.
[m] The answers to the interrogatories must all be written, and sent to the War Department, with the declaration.

State of New York } Dutchess County }
On this first day of February in the year of our Lord one thousand Eight hundred and thirty Three personally appeared before Stephen Thorne Esquire one of the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas in and for said County of Dutchess
Sarah Scitower a resident of the town of Stanford in said County of Dutchess and State aforesaid aged Seventy four years the nineteenth day of February inst. who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832.
That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers and served as herein stated. That is to say - That he was born as he understands the 19 th day of February in the year 1759 in Norwalk in the County of Fairfield in the State of Connecticut - (making him seventy four years of age on the 19 th February 1833) That he was enrolled in the Militia at the age of sixteen in said County of Fairfield. That when he was in his nineteenth year and in the year (1777) he enlisted into a company raised and commanded by Captain Ozias Marvin which company together with three other companies making in the whole about three hundred men were raised in said town of Norwalk and the adjoining towns along Long Island Sound to guard and protect that frontier against the inroads of the British troops on Long Island and the British Fleet that lay and cruised along said Sound. Capt Peter Sension and Capt Elijah Taylor were in command of portions of such force so raised that year to guard along said Long Island Sound - Col — Sension had the command on such frontier on the said Sound that year

That he so enlisted in March 1777 - That the first invasion of the British that he recollects that year was burning Three Side Mills which they effected before they could be repulsed and driven back to their shipping - That this year the British burned Danbury and he this Deponent was one of the soldiers that were engaged in opposing them. Capt Bezias Marvin Col Sension and General Worster were then in command and engaged in repelling the British force. Gen Worster and Col Sension given names he does not recollect. That he was of the force that discovered the British soon after they landed at a place called Compo Hill and followed annoying them twenty six miles to Danbury (which they burned) and back to Compo Hill where they had an engagement with the British. That in their pursuit of the British on their retreat from Danbury and about twelve miles before they reached Compo Hill Gen: Worster was shot in the throat by the British, fell from his horse and expired without speaking, this Deponent being the second person who reached him after he was so shot. Thinks Danbury was burned in April and through the remainder of the year this Deponent does not recollect any particular skirmish with the British further than that they were frequently annoyed by attempts of the British to take their guards drive of the

Stock and other depredations and then retreat That the remainder of this year passed in that kind of a continual vigilance to guard and Long Island Sound and the country adjacent from the British ravages - Levi Taylor was this year Lieut. under Capt Ozias Mowatt - That he this deponent so enlisted for one year which he fully served out and comple- -ted and received from Col Sessions a written disch- -arge certifying to his faithful service as a soldier

3 year
That he was and continued a soldier in the manner before stated during all this year. Further this Deponent saith that in the year 1779 he continued so to serve as a soldier in much the same way and for the same purpose as the two preceding years - This year Major Ozias Mowatt was Colonel; One Nathaniel Scribner acted as a Major though this Deponent thinks he had only been a Capt. Further back in the Country with some men to spy out Tories and be on the alert for the protection of such back regions where Tories were wont to congregate and hold secret conferences - Capt Levi Taylor and Lieut Burrell continued in Command this year - This year he does not recollect of any particular engagement with the British or any particular depredations committed by them only continued attempts to land, drive of the cattle &c. Thinks that this year they were called to Stamford an adjoining town to expell the British who however had re-embarked before their arrival also twice to Bedford about twenty six miles where apprehensions were had that the British intended landing. That this year he gave rations and clothing as the two preceding years and that from this time he first enlisted in March 1777 to March 1780 he continued a soldier without interruption. That his first engagement was for one year which he so served and then engaged for two years which were his said last two years service - That when his time of service expired Col Ozias Mowatt gave him a written discharge certifying with high encomiums to his faithful service for said two last years in which last discharge was particularly mentioned the taking of two Tories in their retreat in an old building

untenanted house by this deponent as an intrepid actor. That both of said discharge were carelessly kept for a few years after the war by this depon- ent, thinking them of but little consequence, when they were lost, and that to before this deponent was married which was some forty six years ago - Further this deponent saith that he does not recollect of there being any continental officers or companies in that vicinity - He recollects seeing Gen: Washington with his troops passing that way on his passage from Boston to New York. Further this deponent saith that he was born (as he understands his age) the 19 th day of February in the year 1759 in Norwalk in the County of Fairfield in the State of Connecticut - That he lived in said town of Norwalk till the close of the Revolutionary War - That soon after the close of that war he went to live with his Grandfather in what was then called Fredericksburgh now (as he thinks) Patterson in the County of Putnam in the State of New York (his father having been absent that time drowned on his return from the West Indies) That he lived about six years in that vicinity and then moved with his family to near Lake George in the State of New York where he lived about seven years when he returned to said County of Dutchess in different parts of which he has ever since resided and now resides in said town of Stanford - That he has no record of his age - That some thirty five years ago his grandfather handed over to this deponent a memorandum on a piece of paper of this deponent's age as his grandfather then said which memorandum this deponent supposed he yet had till he made search for it, which he now discovers is lost and he does not recollect of having seen it these three or four years past - Further this deponent saith that he has made this his declaration entirely from his own recollection as well as to dates as facts without

Reference Reference to the history of that period when the same transpired to in any way aid or assist his recollection. That he may, after this lapse of time have mistaken dates and the order of events but that such events happened and that he believed as herein set forth he fully believes to be substantially correct. Further this deponent saith that there is not, any clergyman permanently located in his immediate neighbourhood nor is there any in the vicinity with whom he is acquainted so well informed (as other persons whom he shall hereafter name) as to this deponent's age or reputation as a soldier. Further this deponent would name Isaac Sackett Asa Thompson Maryann Hunting and James Fish - persons to whom he is known, residing in his part of said town of Stamford, and who can testify to the character of this deponent for veracity and to their belief of his services as a soldier of the Revolution. Further this deponent saith that he does not know of any person now living who can from his personal knowledge testify to the services of this deponent as such soldier, neither does he know that any of his companions in arms or his officers are living and if any are living he this deponent is entirely uninformed where they are. Further this deponent saith that some years ago he went to Connecticut the theatre of his former services (his being after the subject of Pensions was talked of) where he could find no person knowing to his services as such soldier except his Col Ogies Mowin who was then on his death bed speechless and who died the next morning after he saw him. That this deponent being extremely poor then gave up all hopes of procuring a pension for his services until the present humane law as he hopes has placed it within his power. Further this deponent hereby relinquishes every claim to a pension or annuity except the present and declares that his name is

not on the pension Roll of the agency of any State Further this deponent saith that for the last five years he has lived where he now does, and that for the last thirty years or more he has not lived more than five miles from where he now does though some of that time was in an adjoining town in the said County of Dutchess — Further this deponent saith not.
