Sir The application of Aaron Hale whose name was erased from the Pension Roll under the Act of 1820 - has been forwarded to the Department for a long time, & no returns have been received - On this, there surely could be no question - the old Gentleman is in great distress on the subject - He is pining away under the disappointment - while several of his Neighbors have received Certificates -
His Son has called & begs me to write, & if possible have his case decided - he says his Father is so affected by it as to threaten sudden dissolution
Yours Respectfully
