Mr. John H. Small, Chairman

Dear Sir:
One of my constituents makes the following statement: David Hall, Sr., served in the Revolutionary War from North Carolina. David Hall, Jr., who now lives in Camden County, North Carolina, claims to be the son of the Revolutionary soldier and states that after his father's death in 1835 that a letter was received from the War Department making inquiry as to the heirs of his father and stating that he was entitled to certain lands.
May I ask you to investigate and ascertain whether the name of David Hall is carried on the Revolutionary Records as a soldier and whether there is any land or other compensation due the heirs of such soldier.
Awaiting reply, I am
Very sincerely,
John H. Small Received A.G.O. MAR 27 1919

Honorable John H. Small, House of Representatives.
My dear Mr. Small:
In response to your letter received the twenty-ninth instant, by reference from the War Department, I have the honor to advise you that the list of pensioners reported by the Secretary of War in 1835, Volume III page 125 of the pensioners of North Carolina, under the heading
"Names, Rank &c of Persons residing in the State of North Carolina, who have received the benefits of the Act of Congress passed May 15, 1828" shows .
"David Hall, resident of Camden County, North Carolina pensioned at $80 per annum from March 3, 1826, for service as a Private in the — regiment North Carolina Line."
There is no claim for bounty land on file; and there is no further information, as there are no papers on file in this Bureau, said claims under the Act of May 15, 1828 having been adjudicated by the Treasury Department.
Very truly yours,
Commissioner.
