Dear Sir
I enclose Comptroller's Certf of Service - I have been impertuned by Nathan Hawks who is as he informs me a pensioner at $30. per year for New York, he declares for service not allowed to him in his pension & represents that he served under Capt Richard Sacket, through that means I procured the enclosed certificate, now if you consider the service embraced in the within as applicable to his case & as chiming with his declaration, would there not be an increase of pay due to him, as to the name, there is some discrepancy, still it may be his, as both are odd names, of this you are the judge, nothing but justice do I ask for the poor old soldier.
