Madam:
In response to your letter dated the 14 th ultimo, you are advised that in the Report of the Secretary of War in relation to the Pension Establishment of the United States which was printed in 1835, on the list of Invalid Pensioners paid at the Philadelphia Agency, whose residence could not be ascertained by reason of the destruction of papers in the War Office in 1800 and 1814, it appears that Adam Christ, a Sergeant in the Revolutionary Army was pensioned from March 4, 1789 under the Act of June 7, 1785. There is no further data on file relative to him owing to the destruction of papers as above stated when the War Office was burned.
Very respectfully,
F. D. Byington
Commissioner.
