ninety, personally appeared before me, a Justice of the Peace

years, a resident of the Township of Reade, county of Cambria, 
State of Pennsylvania, who, being duly sworn according to the law, 
declares that he is the identical Alex Troxel who was ENROLLED on 
the 4th day of March, 1864, in Private Co. C 184th Pennsylvania 
Vol. in the service of the United States, in the War of the 
Rebellion, and served at least ninety days, and was HONORABLY 
DISCHARGED at Harrisburg, PA, on the 19th day of July, 1865. That 
he is partialy unable to earn a support by manual labor by reason 
of kidney disease & rheumatism & age and general disability. That 
said disabilities are not due to his vicious habits, and are to 
the best of his knowledge and belief of a permanent character. 
That he has never applied for pension. That he makes this 
declaration for the purpose of being placed on the pension roll of 
the United States under the provisions of the Act of June 27, 
1890. That his POST OFFICE ADDRESS is Glasgow, county of Cambria,
