Sir,
The papers in the case of Henry Green sent have been examined. He alleges to have been drafted in Virginia to serve three months under Captain Archibald Woods. The Act of 7 th June 1832, does not provide for any one who did not perform at least six months actual service. The claim has consequently been rejected and the papers filed in the office.

Sir. Mr Henry Green of this County informed me that he had, some time ago, forwarded to yr Dept papers to entitle him to a Pension. from which he has heard nothing. He desires me to write you know of the same to hand, and if so what disposition has been made of them. He is very old and poor & if he is to have a Pension the sooner the better as he remarks. Your attention to this will oblige an honest old man
