Commonwealth of Massachusetts
County of Bristol.
At a Court of Probate held at Dighton — in and for said County on the Seventeenth day of August — one thousand eight hundred and thirty-two, by Capt. before the Hon. Hodijah Baylies Judge of the Probate &c. for said County, personally appeared Philip Hathaway a gentleman and resident of Free town in the County and Common- wealth aforesaid aged Seventy six years on the twenty third day of February now last past, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth, on his oath, make the following declaration, in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832 — That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officer and served as herein stated. — That previously to the month of April 1775 he lived in Middleborough in the County of Plymouth and State of Massachusetts, and about that time enlisted as a soldier by the subscription of Major Ebenezer Dyer aforesaid Middle- borough (said Dyer afterwards was a colonel was a colonel) in a  unit company (so called) in said Middleborough — That soon after he thus enlisted, he (upon an alarm) marched from said Middleborough with said company, which company was command- -ed by Capt. Job Paine, (Josiah Smith the father of Josiah Smith whose deposition is herunto annexed was the lieutenant of said com- -pany, and Samuel Hear the Ensign) to the Town of Marshfield in the County of Plymouth; where the enemy had landed and were landing when the company arrived at Marshfield aforesaid, That within one or two days after he and the company and a great many other volunteer companies had arrived at said Marshfield, they were drawn up, for battle, when the British troops retreated and went on board

2 o this ship, after the exchange of a few shots between them and the American troops - The Americans advanced upon the English soldiers and were within the  the  of them before they retreated - After the English troops left Charlestown, he and the company remained at Charlestown a few days, and finding that the English did not again attempt to land, he and the company returned to said Middleborough, where they were discharged from further duty at that time by Capt. Pierce - This discharge was a verbal and not a written one - There were no continental troops at that time in Charlestown at  as the said Hathaway recalled. He enlisted in said company as a volunteer and went to Charlestown as such and for which he has never received any compensation - His service was rendered between the nineteenth  first day of April 1775 and the first day of May of the same year, but the precise day when it commenced or when it terminated he is not able to say, but knows it was in the month of said April - That he was upon this service about ten days according to his best recollection - That he does not know of any person now living by whom he can prove this term of service. except  except Gen. Devens who is now alive - and the said Philip Hathaway upon his oath of office further declares that about the first day  of of May 1775 (he then residing in said Middleborough) in Boston he enlisted in a company of Infantry, commanded by Capt. Isaac Wood of said Middleborough, and in the Regiment of Col. Cotton of Plymouth in said County of Plymouth, for the term of eight months, this company and Regiment were a part of the troops which were supplied and furnished by the State of Massachusetts - That he with said company was in a day or two after he enlisted marched from said Middleborough to Roxbury in the County of Suffolk where the a part of the American army was stationed - That he and others of the troops were then engaged in erecting fortifications, one of which fortifications he well remembers was erected under the superintendence of Gen. Israel Putnam; said

That he acted as the engineer, that he well remembered of Gen. Washington being at Roxbury in this campaign and that he reviewed the troops; he also well remembered of having frequently seen Gen. Thomas at Roxbury. On the days of the battle at Bunker Hill he the said Philip with the troops in Roxbury were during the day drawn up for battle as they expected an attack from the enemy; the enemy though the day passed upon the Americans who were stationed at Roxbury - That he served in said company to some time in January A.D. 1776 when he together with the company were discharged at Roxbury by Capt. Wood. This discharge was not in writing, but a verbal one - He has no recollection of any continental troops being at Roxbury at this period - The existence of this service will be found in the affidavits of Josiah Smith, who served in Capt. Wood's company with him as a soldier, and who before the close of the American Revolution received a lieutenant's commission and served as such in the continental army -
And the said Philip further upon his oath aforesaid further declares that in the month of November A.D. 1776 he marched from O'Connell's house where he then resided, as a volunteer in a company of militia commanded by Capt. John Pierce to Kingston in the State of Rhode Island, upon an alarm, as the enemy were endeavoring to land upon the main land from Common Sense Point so called which is the Northeasterly end of the Island of Rhode Island, - That after arriving at said Kingston he and the company entered into the engagement with the enemy; and with the other troops that had arrived at Kingston, before the company to which he belonged arrived; drove the enemy back upon the Island of Rhode Island. That there were at said Kingston, many other companies, beside the company to which he belonged, before this alarm was over. - That he does not recollect any continental troops being at said Kingston during this alarm. That after remaining a short

4th
a week or ten days, (and the said Philip thinks ten days), as said Gorton he and his company were marched back to said Middleborough and verbally discharged by Capt. Prince from further duty at that time. Evidence of this service will be found in the annexed affidavit of George Howland who was a private in said company.
And the said Philip Hattaway further declares upon his oath aforesaid that very soon after he returned to Middleborough from Newton as aforesaid and some time in the first week of the month of December A.D. 1776 he enlisted at said Middleborough (where he then resided) in a company of the fanny commenced by Capt. Benjamin Allen of said Middleborough in Col. Daggett's Regiment, (Col. Daggett as he was then told belonged to the New England Association) for the time of three months That in one or two days after he thus enlisted he marched under Capt. Allen from said Middleborough, to Howland's Ferry so called in Newton R.I. where the company and Regiment were stationed until some time in February  March A.D. 1777 when he was discharged and the company was marched to Bristol R.I. where he and the company to which he belonged were stationed until some time in March A.D. 1777 - when the period of his enlistment having expired he was then and there discharged by Capt. Allen. This discharge was a honorable one. That his principal employment together with the company while at Howland's Ferry was in guarding against the landing of the enemy from the Island of Rhode Island. That while at Howland's Ferry and also at Poppleton under Col. Daggett's command, landed upon the Island to procure some barley for the use of the American Troops; that after getting the barley but before leaving the Island, the enemy came upon them from a fort or near Butts hill, when a smart although a short action was fought by him and the other soldiers with him with the enemy, - That they succeeded however in bringing the barley

to the American troops as ordered. — The reason of Capt. Allen's company being ordered to Bristol, was because a number of the enemy's ships of war, had come from New York and appeared in or near the harbor of said Bristol. — That he and the company were then engaged in guarding to prevent the landing of the enemy — That he served said period of three months as a Sergeant in said company. — Elisha Haskell was the first person of the name of Boston the second lieutenant of this company. — The evidence of this service will also be found in the affidavits of George Lawrence known to be deceased, who was a private in said company. — That in this service he was a soldier of the state of Massachusetts — That he the said Philip was out upon another alarm, beside the aforementioned alarms, such as he cannot state the time with any certainty, satisfactory himself, he makes no claim for it — Beside the more particularly described services which amount in the whole to Eleven months and a part twenty days. — And beside said alarm he was engaged for a long time in traversing the country and keeping watch in the neighborhood of Burgoyne's march and army before he was captured by Gen. Gates and his Army; but for this service he claims no compensation and therefore offers no proof although he suffered much from fatigue whilst so engaged —
And the said Philip Hattaway in order more fully to answer the interrogatories propounded by the Secretary of War — says he was born as he has been told by his mother, in Farmington in said County of Bristol, on the twenty third day of February A.D. 1756. — That he has a family record in in a Bible of his, and the  of his age record he took from a Bible of his mother, — where the Bible of his mother now is he is unable to say, but supposes that it has been out and destroyed —

6 th
That he was living at said Middleborough at the several periods when he was called into the service - That in May 8. 1777 he left Middleborough and went into the Territory that was afterwards and now is the State of Vermont in the town now called Manchester. That in the Summer of 1778 he moved to New Salem in the State of Massachusetts, where he resided about nine years, and in the year of 1787 he moved to Sharon near Boston where after living about one and a half years, he again moved and returned again to said Middleborough where after remaining and residing about four years he moved to Freetown aforesaid where he now resides. He has since sold that land He was not a substitute - He was called into service as before specified in this declaration, and the names of his officers and of other officers together with such Regiments &c. as he recollects and the general circumstances of his service and the manner in which he was discharged are before mentioned - The names of the persons who can testify to his veracity and services as a soldier are the same who have signed the annexed affidavits; and in addition to these persons, he has no doubt, but that the Rev. Thomas Andrews who resides about two miles from the said Philip in the Town of Berkley adjoining said Freetown, and John Nichols, Gentleman a resident of said Freetown can testify to his character for veracity and their belief that he rendered the aforementioned services as a soldier in the Revolution.
He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or annuity except the present, and declares that his name is not on the pension roll of the agency of any State.

BRIEF objections to the admission of Pension Claims, of which those answered in the negative, in red ink, will apply to the claim of Philip Hathaway which require further proof or explanation.
I. Does the declaration show where the applicant resides? Yes II. Did the declarant make the declaration in the county where he resides? Yes III. If the applicant did not make the declaration in the county where he resides, is there any reason assigned for his not doing so? IV. Has the declarant mentioned the period or periods of the war when he served? Yes V. *Has he mentioned with precision the length of his service, and the different grades in which he served, in language so definite as to enable the department to determine to what amount of pension he is entitled? Yes VI. Has he given the names of the officers under whom he served, in conformity with the regulations? Yes VII. Has he made a relinquishment of every claim to any other pension than the one under the Act of June 7, 1832? Yes VIII. Has the Court given their opinion? Yes IX. Has the Clerk given his certificate? Yes X. Is the Clerk's seal affixed? And if so, has it a device or inscription by which it can be distinguished from any other seal? Yes

XI. Has the applicant obtained the evidence of a clergyman and another respectable citizen as to their belief respecting his age and the general belief in his neighborhood relative to his revolutionary service? yes
XII. If the clergyman's affidavit has not been produced, is there any reason assigned for not obtaining it?
XIII. If the applicant has no documentary evidence, and has not obtained the testimony of at least one living witness, has he stated in his declaration that such proof cannot be had?
H XIV. † If the applicant has produced a witness or witnesses as to his service, has the magistrate who administered the oath certified that he, she, or they are persons of credibility? no
XV. Does it appear from any of the papers that the witness was in such a situation, or of such an age, as to have a personal knowledge of the applicant's service? yes
XVI. ‡ Are the papers authenticated as the regulations direct? two Justices of Peace are not competent to being such
XVII. Are the seven interrogatories prescribed by the War Department answered satisfactorily? And, if not, which of them is not so answered? yes
EXPLANATORY NOTES.
QUERE V. In a case where the applicant cannot, by reason of the loss of memory, state precisely how long he served, he should amend his declaration by making an affidavit in the following words:
“Personally appeared before me, the undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, &c. A. B. who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that, by reason of old age, and the consequent loss of memory, he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service, but according to the best of his recollection he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the following grades: For _____ year _____ months and _____ days, I served as a _____. For _____ months and _____ days, I served as a _____; and for such service I claim a pension.”
H  See next page

It is important in all cases to determine with precision the period for which the applicant served, and the particular rank he held, as the law directs the pension to be paid according to the grade of the pensioner and the length of his service. The use of the phrase about three or four months is too indefinite, and all such qualifying expressions are objectionable.
# QUERE XIV.  Proof of Service.
In a case where the name of the applicant is not found on the records of the Department, he must prove his service by two credible witnesses, who are required to set forth in their affidavits the time of the claimants entering the service, and the time and manner of his leaving the same, as well as the regiment, company, and line to which he belonged. The magistrate who may administer the oaths must certify to the credibility of the witnesses, and the affidavits must be properly authenticated, as above directed.
QUERE XVI.  Mode of authenticating papers.
In every instance where the certificate of the certifying officer who authenticated the papers is not written on the same sheet of paper which contains the affidavit, or other paper authenticated, the certificate must be attached thereto by a piece of tape or narrow ribbon, the end of which must pass under the seal of office of the certifying officer, so as to prevent any paper from being improperly attached to the certificate.
