January 2. 1821.
Sir,
In answer to yours of 2 Mch. I have to inform you that decisions have been made on the applications of Abner Barlow and Timothy Green. The name of the former is placed on the roll of pensioners of the New York Agency. The claim of the latter cannot be admitted as Col. Van Dyck under whom he states to have served, did not belong to the Continental establishment. The Clerk who endorsed the original declaration "admitted as to service" was under an erroneous impression as to the service performed by the claimant. A Pension Certificate for Mr. Barlow is enclosed, and agreeably to a late regulation, the papers of the rejected case are retained in this Office.
Respectfully Yr Obed. Servt. J. L. Edwards

Dear Sir
Herkimer March 13 th 1824 Yours of the 2 d January 1821. you will find enclosed with the certificates of the secretary of the State of New York The late Lieut Governor Jos. Say leek the late Capt. Mandell, subjoined, they all go to show that Col. Van Dyck did serve as Lieut. Colonel in the 1 st Regiment in the New York line, in the revolutionary War, and that Timothy Green (the applicant rejected) drew lot No. 73 in Bromley in the Military tract for his services as a Soldier and so him clearly appears from the certificate of the Secretary under the Broad Seal of the State. I know nothing of Mr. Green, origi- =onal papers may may be (if he has made Van Dyck his Col.) that Col. Van Schaick might have dead or transferred &c by which Mr. Green supposed that he had named the proper Man as his Col. or from some other Cause there might be some little mistatement whereby the poor Soldier has lost his right - I therefore dear Sir beg of you to give the said Timothy Green care a returning, and in care that any thing further is wanting on the part of said Green Please to give me the earliest information in your power that you will do further to him in placing him on the pension list

as well as in securing his Bank pay according to all Legal & Honorable rules. I have not the least Doubt.
I am Sir yours Ob t Humbly Servt,
