State of Illinois Lake County 30s
I Charlotte Bowen, of the said county and state and only surviving heir at law of Ebenezer Hine deceased, late of Onondaga County & State of New York, do upon oath testify and declare to the best of my knowledge and belief that the said Ebenezer Hine, did enter the service of the United States in the Revolutionary War about the year 1778 for the term of six months, and served for that period, that he again during the same War entered the service for the same term and again served for the full term of six months. That he was a sergeant during part of the whole of said service, but this deponent cannot state the Regiment to which he was attached nor the Colonel's name, but has always been informed that he served under one Captain and Pond of the Town of Milford in the state of Connecticut. This deponent further states, that she is informed

That said Ebenezer Hine, did soon after the act of Congress was passed granting pensions to the soldiers of the Revolution, apply to the proper Department of the Government for a pension, and which she is informed was denied on account of his being possessed of a considerable amount of property; to which application, if the same shall be on file, she would refer, for greater certainty as to the demise of her said father Ebenezer Hine.
I further declare that I have never received a Warrant for bounty land promised to the soldiers and heirs of revolutionary soldiers on the part of the United States; nor do I believe that he ever received it, or transferred his claim to it in any manner whatsoever.
I do hereby appoint E. M. Haines my attorney to receive any Warrant for Bounty Land which may be issued to me.

Sir
I wish to make an enquiry for Charlotte Bowen a resident of this place in reference to pension money due to Ebenezer Hine who was a soldier in the Revolution: at his death he was entitled to a pension and had been for some time prior thereto. Mrs Bowen is his daughter and only surviving heir.
The particulars of the service of the said Ebenezer Hine, are set forth in the accompanying application for Bounty Land, that is as far as can now be ascertained. The application for Bounty Land is presented. Supposing that she may be entitled to it by some existing Law of Congress
Your obedt Servant E. M. Haines.
Hon Comr of Pensions Washington D.C.

Will Mr Dodge examine the B L Claim of the Daughter of E Hines - I am sure the fact that an application for pension is on file? D. M. H.
