Your petitioner being in low circumstances and has suffered with nursing and paying docters more then she can well bare prays some relief and your petitioner shall pray &c
Orange County, John Boling & Joseph Bell made oath before me this day that Thornsberry Boling in the Regular Service, William & Jesse Boling in the Minute Service all came to their mother, Ann Boling some time as near as they can recollect October 1776 Jesse Boling lived about three weeks and died. The other two was very unwell all the winter and to both their knowledge was very troublesome and expensive to the mother who is a Poor Woman. Certified under my hand this 17 Oct 1777. Rowland Thomas
