Joseph Tabor is the son and heir of William Tabor who was a Revolutionary pensioner at the rate of $16. per annum he was probably pensioned in 1825. He died in Febry 1828. and his widow died in September 1841. The widow never drew a pension
The Heirs drew a pension of half pay in 1856. They are now credibly informed that by the provisions made by some recent acts that the said pension may and ought to be increased. if this be true, will you please to send the appropriate forms of proceedings to be made out by the Heir in this case, and much Oblige yours
p.s. if this case is a claimable one which I suppose it to be, can't you furnish us with the dates from the pension list. which will be necessary in making out the true papers
