Humbly Sheweth

That he has lived in this Province upwards of Forty years & brought up a very large family.

That he & his Sons served his Majesty faithfully at the defence of Quebec when besieged by the Americans last War.

That not having Sufficient employment for his family in their Trades, he wishes to Settle them on Lands, And as they have never received and from Goverment, They Humbly pray your Excellency And Honours will be pleased to Grant them a Certain Tract together in proportion to their Separate families.

And Your Memorialist as in duty bound Will ever pray.
