Mary McGregor represents. That her husband (a Soldier in Capt Freemans company) was wounded during the revolutionary war—That he is now over fifty years of age. That she has a son of ten years old an incurable cripple ⟨—⟩ that separated from her husband she would find it extremely difficult to maintain herself & son—she requests That in consideration of these circumstances her husband may be permitted to remain & do garrison duty either here or at west point—or that he may be discharged.

With great respect I am sir yr Mo Ob svt.
