                                               Pay Clerk Office
                                                     Hartford Dec. 20th 1787.

Sir

   I have the honour to transmit the returns requested

by your letter of 29th of Nov. last; which have been extracted from the settlements made by this state with their Line of the Army and which I trust will afford the information desired. . . .

   I take the Liberty to inform you that by the

Acts of this State no person was entitled to a settlement for depreciation who left the service before the 1st of January 1780 & of consequence you will find no names of persons who were discharged before that time. . . .

    The State settled with a part of Colo

Henry Sherburns Regt. & with a part of Colo John Lambs Regt. of Artillery in case you wish for returns of those Regts I can furnish them

                                                I have the honour to be 
                                                with respect your obedt &
                                                 humble servt.
                                                 <Oliver Wolcott Jr>
