private in the 13th Virginia Regiment and whose pay was at the rate of 24 pounds 
per annum appears to have been disabled in such a manner while in the service of 
the United States by a wound to his right arm near the shoulder as to entitle 
him to the sum of ten pounds yearly; which allowance is accordingly made him, to 
commence from the first day of January 1787.  Given under my hand as Lieutenant 
Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia, at Richmond, this16th day of June
