Sir,
Be pleased to inform me where the Pension of David Dabrymple will be paid. It is under the Law of June 1832 -
His papers were prepared by me for the Albany Agency, & returned to me, saying the Pension had been transferred to the Michigam Agency. I accordingly prepared papers for that Agency, which have also been returned to me, with the information, from the U.S. Agent there, that the Pen- -sion would be paid "in New York", in Con- -sequence of which I wrote to the Agent in the City of New York who answers me saying payment has been stopped upon this Pension there, it having been transferred to Michigam.
I understand from the Pensioner that he spent a part of the Years 1834 & 35 in Michigam where he drew his Pension there - He is now a resident of this State -
I am Sir with great respect, Yours & etc.
