I hereby Certify, That, from an examination of the Books and Documents relating to Military Services in the War of the Revolution, which remain in this Department, it appears that the name of James Dromple (so spelt) is borne upon a Muster Roll of Capt Aaron Haynes's Company, in Col Jonathan Brewer's Regt in the Eight Months Service, as a minor of Sudbury, from May 3 to August 1 1775. 90 days. Upon a Return of said Company, in said Regt, as a private, no service named said return is dated October 6 1775. Upon an order of said Company for Military Coats dated Octo. 25 1775.

No roll of Capt Benjamin Rowe Not upon rolls of any Capt Spur No evidence of his Service as a Sergeant and Quarters Master. The preceding is all the evidence of service of any one of the name of said  Drumple a Dalrymple.
And I further Certify, That, before search made for evidence of said facts, the application hereto annexed was filed in this Office, in the form in which the same now appears; that the search was made by myself and my clerks alone; and that said appli- cation, and the certificate above set forth, contain all the facts and circumstances within my knowledge, pertaining to the case.
In Testimony Whereof, I have hereunto affixed the Seal of the Commonwealth, the date above written.
John G. Paepey; Secretary of the Commonwealth.

I, James Dalrymple of Leominster in the County of Worcester & Commonwealth of Massachusetts, in the ninetyeth year of my age, do testify and say that I rendered service in the War of the Revolution from the Town of Sudbury in the County Middle- -sex. I state aforesaid, that I have good reason to believe that I do not receive a pension for the highest rank of service which I rendered. I therefore request the Secretary of the Commonwealth to examine the Rolls & Documents in his office for proof of all the services which I rendered, which were according to the best of my recollection rendered as follows. That on the 19 th of April 1775, I marched to Concord on the alarm & went to Cambridge in the company of Captain Aaron Hovey and rendered the service as a Sergeant for eight months, and the next service was a private & drummer for one year in Boston in Captain Jacob's company, Col. Revere's train of Artillery, being in the year 1776 (or 77) and the next service was at Rhode Island in Captain Benjamin Howe's company as a sergeant & commanded the company for a short time while there. The next service was a year's service in 1777 and 1778, in the Continental Army in the State of New York, as a drummer in Captain Sprague's company under General Putnam, apart of this time I was Sergeant & rendered the duty of a Quarter Master for one company for a part of this service, and it is my impression that I rendered other short services

I James Dalrymple of Leominster in the County of Worcester and common- wealth of Massachusetts, a Revolutionary Pensioner of the United States: Eighty nine years of age. Depose and say, that I have good reason to believe that I do not receive a pension for all the services & for the highest ranks of office which I rendered in the service of my country. I hereby authorize Dr. Appoint Elijah Black of Brighton in the State of Massachusetts, my attorney for me to make the requisite application for proof of my services at Washington, from the Washington papers so called, and that according to the best of my recollections, I rendered service as follows. That at the commencement of the Revolution I resided in the town of Sudbury, County of Middlesex & State of Massachusetts. That on the alarm on the 19 th of April 1775, I repaired to Concord on the alarm & rendered service in Capt. Aaron Stuyvesant's company in Col. Brewer's Regt. The next service was in & about Boston, as a private & drummer in Capt. Brewer's company, in Col. Brewer's or Col. Croft's train of Artillery, for one year, which in the year 1776 & 77. - The next service which I think was in the Autumn of 1777, a three or six months service at Rhode Island as a sergeant in the company of Capt. Benjamin Monroe. - The next then, I think was a year's service in the Continental Army in 1779, as a drummer in company of Capt. Spur of the State of Connecticut apart of this time I

rendered the service of Sergeant, & was appointed by the Captain & Quarter Master for the Company, for a part of this service I went near two miles after the provisions for said Company to the Commanding General's Quarters.
