Sir,
Enclosed is an Application of John W. Clancey for increase of Pension - he has been & still is much afflicted with disease, & is now unable to procure a maintenance. He lives about 18 Miles from Norfolk Bor., & has requested me to indorse the papers, that an answer to his Application may come to me, to be forwarded to him. I take the liberty to add that he is considered a very worthy, honest man; & known to Mr. Newton, if further information be deemed necessary.
I am very respectfully

In pursuance of the Commission hereunto annexed we have exam- ined John McLemore and find that the Bones of the right Leg have been so injured that considerable dis- membering of the limb has taken place which with perpetual ulcers must have accompanied the shattered state of the Bones, since the accident totally disqualify the said John McLemore from the performance of hard labor or such other active occupation as will enable him to procure subsistence
