Madam:
I advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 39399, it appears that Jonas Cutting enlisted at Northborough, Massachusetts, in March 1783 and served in Captain Phineas Coburn's and Captain William Mills' Companies, Colonel John Brooks' Massachusetts Regiment, and was discharged January 20, 1784.
It also appears that he served in the War of 1812 as Lieutenant-Colonel of the 11th and 25th Regiments of U. S. Infantry.
He was allowed pension on his application executed December 15, 1818, while a resident of Weathersfield, Windsor County, Vermont, aged fifty-four years.
In 1825, he was living at Woodstock, Vermont, and referred to his wife as aged sixty-one years (her name not given), and to children- Clarissa, aged twenty-nine years, unmarried; Sarah, aged twenty-six years, unmar-

Soldier stated that he had nine children, only other names mentioned being- Joseph Cutting; Nathaniel Cutting, Deputy-Sheriff of Cheshire County, New Hampshire; and Sewall Cutting, all of whom were married. Son Jonas-
The above noted Jonas Cutting is the only soldier of that name found on the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau.
Owing to the very large number of similar inquiries and the lack of a clerical force available for the purpose, the Bureau is unable to make immediate reply to inquiries pertaining to soldiers of the War of the Revolution and War of 1812.
Such information is furnished by courtesy of the Government and without fee, and letters are being answered as rapidly as possible in the order of their receipt.

I William Sarris of Weathersfield, County of Windsor and State of Vermont, of lawful age do testify and say, that the foregoing Account current hereunto attached and by me subscribed, between Jonas Cutting of said Weathersfield and me the deponent is just and true, and the items therein specified were had by the said Cutting from me, or were purchased by me for his account. That the first mortgage I took on the said Cutting's farm was for $499 dated the 13 th of January 1845, which amount was for the balance of $58,60 due me by said Cutting on my house account; $50 due me on my store account; and $21, 80cts. for which I accounted with Leonard Sarris & Co., for goods which I understood said Cutting had of said Leonard Sarris & Co., and for which three balances, notes of hand had been given, and which notes of hand were taken up by said Cutting when he gave me the mort- gage; and for the remainder of the $499 I lent the said Cutting cash from time to time, for which respective loans I took his notes of hand, and which notes of hand were given up when the said Cutting gave me the said mortgage; the cash I thus advanced him I un- derstood at the time was for the payment of debts, and which, from my knowledge of his circumstances, I verily believe to have been the case. My impression now is that a part of said money I loaned him was for the payment of a judgment obtained against him in Hartford Conn. Another sum was toward the payment of the interest on the mortgage due by said Cutting to Nathan Mills of Windsor, which interest

I William Sarris of Weathersfield, County of Windsor and State of Vermont, of lawful age do testify and say, that the foregoing Account current herunto attached and by me subscribed, between Jonas Cutting of said Weathersfield and me the deponent is just and true, and the items therein specified were had by the said Cutting from me, or were purchased by me for his account. That the first mortgage I took on the said Cutting's farm was for $499 dated the 13 th of January 1845, which amount was for the balance of $58,00 due me by said Cutting on my house account; $50 due me on my store account; and $21, 80 cts. for which I accounted with Leonard Sarris & Co., for goods which I understood said Cutting had of said Leonard Sarris & Co., and for which three balances, notes of hand had been given, and which notes of hand were taken up by said Cutting when he gave me the mort- gage; and for the remainder of the $499 I lent the said Cutting cash from time to time, for which respective loans I took his notes of hand, and which notes of hand were given up when the said Cutting gave me the said mortgage; the cash I thus advanced him I un- derstood at the time was for the payment of debts, and which, from my knowledge of his circumstances, I verily believe to have been the case. My impression now is that a part of said money I loaned him was for the payment of a judgment obtained against him in Hartford Conn. te Another sum was toward the payment of the interest on the mortgage due by said Cutting to Nathan Mills of Windsor, which interest

I understood had been unpaid for some time. That the mortgage which the said Cutting gave me on his tavern stand in the middle of the town of Weathersfield, dated 20 th of March 1821 for $ 385 was for the balance of his accounts from the 13 th of November 1816 to the 20 th March 1821, and for a horse which I sold to the said Cutting for $130, and which he afterwards let his son Joseph have, who sold the same in Boston; also for a note I paid for the said Cutting to Merriam & Brigham of Boston, and an account to Howard & Gordon, which together with money I loaned the said Cutting amounted to said sum of $ 385.
That the mortgage which I took from said Cutting, dated 7 th March 1823 for $ 151, was for the balance of his account between the 3 rd of April 1821, and the said 7 th of March.
That the items charged to him subsequent to that date are mostly for articles which I purchased for said Cutting in Boston, to be used in the tavern stand at the Bow, which he hired of me, and I advanced the money for the payment of various articles . Ct. I knew the said Cutting to be very much in debt, and the said articles if put in his possession would be liable to attachment I retained them in my possession, and delivered them in such small quantities as he from time to time wanted, he from time to time paying me small sums toward the same; and toward the balance I received Chester Stone's four notes dated 9 th December 1823 each for $36.
That I have understood, and do believe that the loss of the said Jonas Cutting's property has been principally owing to the aid which he has on various occasions afforded to his sons; that he became security for his son Nathaniel who was deputy Sheriff of Cheshire County in New Hampshire, by which he sustained a considerable loss; apart from the horse which he let his son Joseph have and several other sums which he advanced or became security for him, he was lured for, when

his son went off to the western part of New York; I have also understood that his son Sewall was a considerable injury to him, as likewise his son Jonas, and from their unthinking squandering characters there cannot be the least chance of his ever recovering any thing from them; for my own part I would not give him a cent on the dollar for all his claims upon them. He, the said Cutting, was so reduced when he left the Bow in March 1824 that I was obliged to lend him $20 which still remains unpaid. Further the deponent saith not. Wethersfield Vt 10 March 1826

Carlos Cowles' Affidavit H. H. Foster

I Carlos Coombs of Waitsfield in the County of Windsor & State of Vermont of Lawful age do Testify & say that on the 8th Day of January 1819 I bought of Jonas Cutting his farm in sd Waitsfield On which at that time there were Three Mortgages Two of which were to Nathan Mills of Windsor the Other to William Jarvis of sd Waitsfield The whole Amount of the three including Interest Up to the first of April following being the time I took possession was being Twentyfive hundred twentytwo Dollars & ninetysix cents that I gave for sd Farm what was Estimated at four thousand five hundred dollars the payment of which was made in this way viz. Twentyfive hundred twentytwo Dollars & ninetysix cents I paid to said Mills & Jarvis for the purpose of satisfying their said Mortgages - I sold said Cutting the Tavern Stand at the middle of the town for the Sum of fifteen hun- dred dollars - and the residue being four hundred Seventy seven dollars & four Cents I paid to Justin & Elias Symonds of Hartford Vermont for said Cutting to be applied on a Judgment they had recovered against J Cutting before the Windsor County Court.
I further testify that the sum of Seventeen hundred dollars was put into said deed from me to sd Cutting as the consideration by the request of said Cutting as he was wishing to sell said Tavern Stand, and I suppos- ed that putting in that Sum was for the purpose of ena- bling him to obtain a higher price for the same than he might do if the real estimated consideration of fifteen

hundred dollars had been put in - which sum of fifteen hundred dollars was something less than S t Stane cost me counting the land & buildings erected by me, and I refused to buy of said Cutting unless he would allow me for it the sum above mentioned - Immediately after the date of said deed the value of real estate fell in this place, and the sum of nine hundred dollars for which S t Cutting afterwards sold S t Stane I think is as much as I could have obtained for it at that time - Cutting having exerted himself to sell & having advertised the Stane for sale in a public paper of the vicinity

The same person who had been in the service of the United States for a number of years - is now in the service of the United States. His name is given as John H. H. and his residence is given as Burlington, Vermont. He was born on the 27th of July, 1820, and is now in the 84th year of his age. He is now in the service of the United States. John H. H. is now in the service of the United States. His service is in the service of the United States. His only difficulty with the Government is that he does not properly and according to the rules established by the Department account for his property.
My feeling is that he is entitled to the pension on account of his poverty. Previous to the late war his circumstances were good. At the commencement of the war he was appointed Lt. Col. of the 11th Inf. and afterwards commanded the 25th Inf. — He must have sacrificed his property during the war. Col. Cutting is an illiterate man and presume suffered much by not keeping his accounts. — When I say his circumstances were good I do not mean that he was rich. He possessed a

farm perhaps worth $3000 - This farm has long been out of his hands and he is now keeping farm for a living in a rented house. -
Since I have the honor of being in Congress I have prepared this claim with Mr. Edwards but unfortunately have not succeeded. The particular wherein he does not properly represent has never been pointed out to us, but only in general terms that he does not properly represent us.
We are convinced that this is a most worthy claim. I would disdain to press it, but believing as I do that it is a most righteous one, I venture to request that you will examine the papers, hoping and trusting that the result will be favorable. -
I have the honor to be Sir your Obedient Servant

I William Jarvis of Weathersfield in the County of Wind- sor & State of Vermont, of lawful age, do testify & say, that from August 1811 to November 1813, I supplied Col o Jonas Cut- ting of sd Weathersfield, with various articles for the use of his fami- ly & his farm, and also in 1812 & 1813 by his request I advanced sev- eral sums of money to his wife whilst the said Cutting was in the army; I also loaned to the sd Cutting several sums of mon- ey in the course of 1815, & I also assumed a debt due from sd Cutting to Leo d Jarvis & Co. which I understood was for balance of an account for goods had by sd Cutting, of the sd Leonard Jar- vis & Co, which, altogether, amounted to the sum of four hundred & ninety nine dollars, for which sum the sd Cutting gave me his note of hand bearing date 13 of Jan y 1816, & as collateral secu- rity for the payment of the sd note, the sd Cutting gave me a mortgage deed of the farm which he then owned & lived on, which mortgage deed was dated 16 Jan y 1816, the sd Cutting having previously given a mortgage deed of the sd farm to Nathan Mills of Windsor for 1250 dollars, as appeared by the records of the sd town of Weathersfield; the sd farm was sold by sd Cutting to Carlos Bowls of Weathersfield on the 8 th Jan y 1819 with the encumbrance of my mortgage upon it, & as I understood from

the s d Cowles with the encumbrance of the afore described mortgage to Nathan Mills & also of another mortgage which the s d Cutting gave to the s d Mills subsequently to the date of my mortgage; which note of four hundred & ninety nine dollars was finally paid to me by s d Cowles in 1823. That between Nov r 1816 & the latter part of Feb y 1821 I also supplied the s d Cutting with various articles for the use of himself & family, & for the last year of the s d time, he having hired a house of me, he was indebted to me for the rent of the same, & during the winter of 1821, I paid for the said Cutting a note due by him to Merriam & Brigham of Boston & also the balance of an Acct. due to Howard & Gordon of the same place, & in Feb y of the same year I also loaned some money to the s d Cutting, which altogether amounted to three hundred & eighty five dollars for which he gave me his note, dated 20 th March 1821 & which note was secured by a mortgage of the same date on the tavern stand at the middle of the town of Weatherfield, which Carlos Cowles conveyed to the s d Cutting on the 8 th June 1819; I also supplied the s d Jonas Cutting with various articles for the use of his family between the 3 d of April 1821 & the 7 th of March 1823, which including two years house rent, amounted to one hundred & fifty one dollars for which the s d Cutting gave me his note on the s d 7 th of March & secured the payment thereof by a mortgage of the same date on the s d tavern stand, running jointly to me & to Charles Humphreys, of the same date.

Also supplied to the sd Cutting for the use of his family & purchased for him several articles in Boston between the 7 th March 1823 & the 16 th March 1824, which articles amounted including a years house rent to one hundred & forty four dollars for the payment of which sum the sd Jonas Cutting endorsed over to me four notes of hand, signed by Chester Stone & dated the 9 th Dec r 1823 for thirty six dollars each, payable in 1824 1825 1826 & 1827 respectively. On Dec r 9 th 1823 sd Cutting sold his tavern stand to Chester Stone of Cornish, State of New Hampshire for nine hundred dollars as I understood from the parties, & which was, the sum I actually believe was given, the sd Cutting having spoken with me upon the subject, & stated that the sd Stone would not give him any more, & which I advised him to receive as he had been endeavoring to sell the sd place from the time it came into his possession & no one having offered so large a price. The sd place was sold with the encumbrance of my mortgage of three hundred & eighty five dollars, & of the mortgage to Charles Humphreys & myself of two hundred & fifty one dollars, the amount of the sd two mortgages (I having accounted with Charles Humphreys for the note due to him included in the latter mortgage) with the interest thereon due from date, I took sd Chester Stones seven promissory notes payable to me, for seven hundred dollars, & to secure the payment of the sd note the said Chester Stone gave me a mortgage of the sd tavern stand dated

Dec r 9 th 1823 for the particulars of which, reference may be had to the copy of the sd mortgage. Further the deponent saith not.

The oath to be taken before a duly qualified magistrate, whose official character and signature must be properly authenticated.
□ If the pensioner has never received a formal certificate, but has drawn his pension on a mere notification, as was the case in a few instances many years ago, he should leave out the above words in italics, and insert, in lieu thereof, "but has never received a formal certificate, and now wishes to obtain one."

City of Washington Jan. 16. 1826.
Sir,
Herewith I transmit to you sundry affidavits and copies of deeds relating to the case of Jonas Cutting -
Mr Cutting has an idea that he was merely suspended from the pension roll. if so, I take it should he be restored restored that, he would be entitled to his pay back to the date of the suspension -
I am well acquainted with Mr Cutting and have no hesitation in stating from my knowledge of his circumstances I believe him be too poor enough to entitle him to a pension - He is an honest man in my belief - such is his reputation when he is known -

Sir, In again referring to your letter of the 12th of May last on the subject of Jonas Cutting's application to be restored to the pension roll I am induced again to address you on the subject - The Deeds of which you have copies show the disposition of all his real Estate which he possessed on the 18th March 1818 or has acquired since - His affidavit states this to be the fact - Now if in his declaration he may not have particularly adverted to these deeds containing the evidence of the disposition of his real Estate you have in substance the same testimony - you have the copies of the deeds and his affidavit - With regard to his personal property he cannot make any more proof than you have - His declaration contains all he could say in a new one -
Since my return I have seen Mr Cutting he says you have all that he can furnish

and that if he cannot be restored under the proof he has forwarded he must give it up - Did I not know of my personal knowledge that Col. Cutting is a worthy and meritorious applicant I should feel less anxiety -
Col. Cutting made many sacrifices in the service during the last war - at least went into service an independent man and come out of it poor -
I do hope on a revision of his case you may feel disposed to restore him to the Pension Roll -
I am yours very respectfully

Sir,
I enclose back to you Jonas Cutting papers - I find that I have been under a mistake in this case - On my return home I will see that Mr. Cutting makes a proper declaration and which I will forward, and hope that we shall be able to avoid all objections -
I am so truly convinced that he is a meritorious claimant. I should be extremely sorry that he could not so account for property which he may have here to fore disposed as to bring his case within the rules adopted by the Department - That he is poor enough at this time there is no question.
I am yours very respectfully

I Jonas Cutting of Woodstock in the County of Mendocino and State of California of the age of sixty one years do depose and say that all the Real Estate I owned in 1818 was disposed of by me according to the Deeds, Copies of which have lately been transmitted to the Pension Office at Washington. I have owned no Real Estate since the date of the last of said deeds.
I had in 1818 the following described personal property, to wit; One yoke of oxen which I sold, I believe to a man in Oct. 1819, for, as nearly as I can remember, seventy five dollars; - Also, four cows, one of which I sold to one Weatherbee of Charleston, N. H. and another I sold to some person whose name I cannot recollect, for one of them I think I recd. 25 dollars, in 1820, the other two I kept; Also, four two year old cattle which I sold to Geo. Brigham of Bridgewater in the fall of 1820 in payment of a debt for making stone wall on the farm I then possessed in Weatherfield, the price I cannot remember; Also, two yearlings which I sold to Charles Weatherbee of Weatherfield but the time and price I cannot remember; And also, about thirty sheep among which were about ten wethers which I killed along from time to time for the use of my family, & the other twenty I sold I think in 1819 to John Chase & Isaac Stevens of Weatherfield, the price I cannot remember, but the cash I recd. for them I paid out to my creditors & when I was holden for my sons but cannot remember the particulars. Whether I am correct in the precise quantity of stock I then held it is impossible for me now to recollect, as it is not customary for the farmers of this country to take an annual account of stock or to make an entry or to keep any record of the stock which they sell from time to time, of course after

a lapse of years it becomes almost impossible for them to recollect what quantity of stock they at any particular time had on hand, or in what manner or for what price it might have been disposed of. In this respect I have followed the general custom of this country. But I believe the above is a true account of the property I had in 1818 & which I have since disposed of.
A number of my sons had been unfortunate in business, and I occasionally became holder for them, which involved me in many difficulties & compelled me to raise money by loans and by sales of property. My memory being quite impaired, added to what I have stated above, is the reason why I am unable to be more particular in dates, sums, &c.
I have paid out for my sons in cash since 1818 as much as six hundred dollars, but it is not in my power to prove the particulars of the same, except so far as they are proved by the accompanying affidavits. From their adverse I have derived no benefit, nor is there any probability I ever shall, as those of my sons for whom I have paid so much are poor and not in thriving circumstances.
My family consists of my wife, who for more than a year has been unable by reason of sickness to do any business; - my two daughters, one aged 29 & the other 27 years, & my son aged 23 years, all three of whom are single & I expect will leave me before long. I am now considerably in debt, and have not property enough in this world to pay what I owe; nor has any of my property been disposed of with a view to obtain a pension.

In consequence of his son, Joseph H. Cutting, leaving this country, after the said Jonas had become his bail — I further depose and say that at the time the said Jonas Cutting paid the money aforesaid he said it was a hand cash for him to pay this as he had never received any thing for it and never should, as his son was poor — and I think he added that he had paid or here got to pay considerable money for his being bound either with his son Joseph H. or some other one — and further saith not — John Wright

Dear Sir:
Will you inform me if Jonas Cutting who served in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War as a private in Ebenezer Frye's New Hampshire Company; also as a Corporal in the 6th Company, 1st New Hampshire Regiment, was a pensioner? If he was, will you give me the names of his children, and also of his wife, and date of his death and age at same, if these facts are on record in your files.
This information is desired by a descendant for application to membership in the Daughter's of the American Revolution.

53 Old Orchard Lane, Scarsdale, N.Y., March 26, 1928.
Pension Commissioner, Dep't of the Interior, Washington, D.C.,
Dear Sir:
On December 15, 1927 I wrote asking if your records contain the name of Jonas Cutting. Not receiving a reply, I am writing again.
The name of Jonas Cutting appears on the Roll of Capt. Ebenezer Frye's Company of New Hampshire for the town of Bedford, as a soldier in the Revolution. He is supposed to have died April 5, 1834, in Woodstock, Vermont. Can you verify this date and place of death? Also, do his papers give the name of wife and any children?
This information is desired by a descendant for application to membership in the D. A. R.
Yours respectfully,
Clara G. Miller
