Crawfordville, Ga., April 14, 1845. Messrs. Grieve & Orme: You might perhaps confer a favor upon some of your readers, by publishing the following list of names of Revolutionary officers and soldiers who have not yet obtained the bounty lands to which they are entitled under the laws of the United States. In case of the death of the soldier, his heirs or legal representatives are entitled in his stead. The information is contained in Executive Document No. 57, of the first session of last Congress. The whole document would doubtless be interesting to many, but is too large for publication in a newspaper. It is a reply from the Secretary of War to a resolution of the House of Representatives, for the names of all those of all the States who are still entitled to bounty lands. I send you the names of those of South Carolina and Georgia only. Yours respectfully, A. H. STEPHENS. A list of names of such Officers and Soldiers of the Revolutionary Army as have acquired a right to lands from the United States, and who have not yet applied threfor. Taken from Ex. Doc. 57, 1st Sess. 28th Con. _________ GEORGIA. Allison, Henry Lieutenant. Brossford, Coleson Captain. Collins, Cornelius Lieutenant. Delaplane, Peter E. Captain. Fitzpatrick, Patrick Lieutenant.
