That he entered the service of the United States under the following officers, and served as herein stated.
That on the Eleventh day of April 1781 he enlisted at Ballston, in the County of Saratoga and State of New York in Captain Job Wright's Company, of New York State Troops in which Jesse Hubbell and Pliny Moore were Lieutenants, for the term of three years. That said Company was attached to the Regiment of New York State Troops, commanded by Colonel Marinus Willett, in which regiment, Andrew Fink and Elias Vanbenschoten were Majors. That in July of the same year this declarant left Ballston in company with other recruits, and marched to Saratoga. That he remained in garrison at Saratoga until November of the same year, when the Company to which he was attached was relieved by a Regiment of New Hampshire State Troops commanded by Colonel Reed, and - Waite - and - Morrill - were Majors. Captain Wright's Company was then ordered back to Ballston for winter quarters, in a picket fort. That this declarant remained on winter quarters at Ball-

town until June 1782 when his Company was ordered to Fort Rensselaer on the Mohawk River. That he marched through Schenectady, and ar- rived at Fort Rensselaer about the latter part of the same month. That he remained at Fort Rensselaer in garrison until the latter part of the month of December of the same year. That in the same month he left Fort Rensselaer, in Capt. Wright's Company, along with that of Capt. Cannon, and was stationed at Fort Herkimer, about twenty two miles distant. That in 1783 in the month of February de- clant marched from Fort Herkimer in Colo: nel. Willets Regiment for the purpose of re- closing Fort Oswego on Lake Ontario, which was then held by the British. That after proceeding about one hundred miles through the interior of the State of New York, and undergoing various hardships and sufferings the Regiment found itself discovered, and it returned to Fort Her- kimer without affecting the object of the expe- dition. That deponent remained at Fort Herkimer until the 16 th day of May 1783 when Captain Wright and Captain Cannon's Companies were ordered to Fort Rensselaer. That deponent re- mained on duty at Fort Rensselaer until the 10 th day of August in the same year, when he was honorably discharged, by producing an able bodied substitute, as by his Certificate of discharge hereto annexed will appear. And this deponent further saith that the only evidence in his possession, of his services, is, the deposi- tions of Conrad Edick and Paul Atwell, duly subscribed and attested and hereto annexed, together with his Certificate of Discharge, dated August 10 th 1783, also hereto annexed. And this deponent further saith that he was born in Norwalk (now New Canaan) in the County of Fairfield, and State of Connecticut, on the 19 th

day of May 1763, where he resided until he was seven years of age, when he removed to Ballston, Saratoga County and State of New York, that he resided at Ballston until the year 1792 when he removed to Mount Pleasant Township, in the County of Wayne and State of Pennsylvania; That he continued to reside in Mount Pleasant Township until the year 1811, when he removed to Dyberry Township in said County where he now resides.
