Hon. J. L. Edwards
Sir
Mrs. Dexter a pauper of the Town of Mansfield and Widow of 18-0 Warham Dexter who was a private in the Army of the Revolution who served under Col. Wells of Tolland in this State in the year 1780 or 1781 for six or eight months is entitled to a Pension as I believe and from the testimony of Revolutionary Soldiers who were well acquainted with him there can be no doubt. I have not been able as yet to find any one who was out with him and the State Records are imperfect from 1780 to the close of the War. Therefore Sir I would take the liberty to request you to examine the Records in your Office for the years above named and should you find his name please forward to me the length of time he served and by so doing you will receive the thanks of a poor unfortunate Widow.
I also forward the declaration of Mrs. Buck for a Pension.
I would enquire whether the evidence in the cases of Mrs. Brigham Wright, Ensworth, Allen, and Hutchinson are sufficient.
I am Very Respectfully Your Obt. and humble Servt.
A. W. Brige
P. John W. Ensworth
