I John Carlton of Mont Vernon in the county of Hillsborough and State of New Hampshire aged sixty nine years, being duly sworn, testify and say, that I was born in the town of Antrim, in said county, and have lived in said Antrim and in Mont Vernon which was formerly formerly a part of said Antrim ever since. I further say that I have always been acquainted with Andrew Burnam now of Milford in said county. He lived about a mile from me. Some time the fore part of the year 1778, I cannot state the exact time, but it was in the winter, a recruiting officer by the name of Wheaton, and I think a Lieutenant, came to said Antrim to enlist soldiers for a year. He asked me to enlist, and told me he had enlisted said Burnam for a year. Soon after said Burnam went away, and I did not see him again until August of the same year. In August I went to Rhode Island as a volunteer, and there I saw said Burnam doing the duty of a soldier. I do not recollect seeing him again until the end of the year, and I have no doubt he was absent from Antrim from about the time of his enlistment during the rest of the year. John Carlton
State of New Hampshire County of Hillsborough ss - On this third day of July in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and thirty two, personally came John Carlton above named, and signed the foregoing affidavit and made oath in due form of law that the same is true.
