James Bole's pension stopp'd from the 4^th March 1795 until it should amount to four hundred and seventy two Dollars which he had been erroneously paid as mentioned to you in a letter from the Secretary of War dated 1^st August 1795. His pension, which is one hundred Dollars p annum from March 1795 to March 1800 will leave a balance of twenty eight Dollars in his favor, which you will pay to him. His pension will recommence at its former rate viz 8/3 dollars p month from 6^th March last. I am Sir with respect your ob^ed hum^ble ser^t.
