In moving out I Blount's term I was in Col. Benjamin D. Dinsmore's company in Col. Poor Reg t in the Massachusetts line For the year's service after my pass expired which I think was the fore part of March 1876. I joined Col. Suckridge's company in the eighth Reg t Commanded by Col. Enoch Poor in the Massachusetts Line & was marched to New London Connecticut where we shipped & went to New York, from thence I was marched on to Crown Point & St. Johns also More- all and had liberty from my officer in the Spring of the year 1877 to return home my year's ser- vice being expired (from a place called Fort George) making my service about a year & a half being stationed at a time in Fort George hospital. In March 1878 I joined Col. Wades company being the 8th in the Regiment Commanded by Col. Michael Jackson in the Massachusetts Line to serve for one year which I faithfully served out and one month over the line , on account of not being relieved

by James Dunlap who was the Soldier that relieved me to serve out the remainder of the three years Having relieved one Beach a Soldier who served the first year I was discharged or had my post at in West Point in New York some time in May 1782 I from the state that I am reduced in my circumstances & stand in need of relief from my Country for my support not being the owner of any property & subject by my Labour & being some what infirm & unable to labour all the time Jacob M c Entire
