Sir,
I have received the informal application of the surviving children of James & Elizabeth Baldwin Baldwin, for arrears of pension in virtue of the services of the former  latter in the revolutionary war. No arrears could be due these parties - Their parents having died before any law was passed allowing them pensions respectively. Surviving children are only entitled to such arrears as were actually due at the time of the death of their parents.
