regiment_n now_o live_v that_o be_v know_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o deserve_a gallant_a man_n and_o it_o be_v a_o complete_a fight_a regiment_n and_o then_o to_o certify_v that_o he_o know_v such_o a_o

money_n we_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o cause_n to_o declare_v our_o grievance_n but_o i_o believe_v than_o it_o will_v a_o be_v a_o great_a grief_n to_o some_o to_o have_v see_v none_o but_o honest_a man_n provide_v for_o for_o than_o they_o shall_v not_o a_o be_v so_o well_o provide_v as_o they_o be_v now_o with_o our_o money_n next_o remedy_n be_v if_o for_o the_o future_a there_o shall_v any_o

to_o such_o as_o have_v have_v more_o already_o then_o ever_o their_o service_n deserve_v be_v a_o cluster_n of_o insinuate_a impudent_a more_o than_o indigent_a officer_n that_o run_v up_o and_o

be_v the_o course_n of_o most_o gift_n that_o have_v be_v bestow_v since_o his_o majesty_n come_v in_o that_o if_o it_o be_v open_o know_v upon_o who_o it_o have_v be_v bestow_v it_o can_v not_o be_v make_v appear_v that_o it_o have_v be_v half_o distribute_v according_a to_o the_o intention_n it_o be_v give_v for_o so_o that_o a_o few_o particular_a person_n have_v and_o do_v get_v a_o sheer_fw-mi in_o everything_o and_o most_o of_o they_o deserve_v nothing_o and_o some_o want_v nothing_o when_o some_o gentleman_n to_o my_o knowledge_n that_o have_v do_v the_o king_n good_a service_n have_v be_v great_a sufferer_n gallant_a soldier_n and_o no_o diserter_n that_o can_v not_o get_v a_o penny_n of_o all_o this_o money_n to_o relieve_v they_o not_o hear_v of_o it_o till_o it_o be_v all_o distribute_v some_o be_v bring_v to_o that_o condition_n through_o want_n that_o now_o they_o be_v past_a want_n such_o as_o can_v not_o make_v their_o case_n know_v to_o none_o but_o

for_o by_o pension_n according_a to_o the_o act_n which_o i_o believe_v if_o they_o be_v clear_o purge_v and_o none_o to_o have_v it_o but_o such_o as_o can_v produce_v from_o their_o officer_n and_o the_o place_n where_o they_o have_v live_v or_o be_v since_o the_o war_n such_o certificate_n as_o i_o prescribe_v for_o our_o indigent_a officer_n before_o i_o believe_v then_o there_o will_v be_v a_o good_a subsistence_n for_o all_o true_a pensioner_n widow_n or_o other_o which_o i_o believe_v be_v not_o many_o more_o than_o they_o have_v make_v indigent_a officer_n if_o they_o be_v careful_o examine_v but_o there_o be_v as_o great_a complaint_n from_o they_o as_o there_o be_v just_o from_o we_o some_o that_o never_o serve_v the_o king_n some_o that_o serve_v a_o while_n and_o run_v home_o other_o that_o serve_v the_o rebel_n here_o in_o england_n till_o the_o king_n come_v in_o yes_o and_o receive_v their_o wound_n in_o their_o service_n against_o the_o king_n some_o of_o they_o and_o have_v pension_n for_o it_o from_o they_o yet_o make_v friend_n and_o get_v some_o officer_n hand_n like_o themselves_o or_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o the_o parish_n charge_n have_v get_v in_o to_o be_v pensioner_n when_o to_o my_o knowledge_n there_o be_v those_o that_o have_v be_v stout_a soldier_n and_o serve_v as_o corporal_n and_o sergeant_n and_o continue_v till_o the_o end_n of_o the_o war_n lame_a and_o wound_v too_o and_o have_v be_v faithful_a ever_o since_o some_o can_v get_v nothing_o some_o forty_o shilling_n or_o three_o pound_n a_o year_n when_o four_o pound_n or_o more_o shall_v be_v allot_v some_o that_o can_v be_v prove_v as_o unworthy_a rascal_n against_o the_o king_n friend_n in_o the_o time_n of_o rebellion_n as_o those_o that_o be_v always_o against_o we_o and_o worse_a too_o and_o will_v be_v as_o ready_a still_o to_o stand_v for_o rebellion_n if_o they_o think_v it_o will_v prove_v the_o strong_a side_n thus_o have_v the_o king_n and_o parliament_n clemency_n in_o the_o act_n be_v abuse_v which_o i_o hope_v god_n will_v put_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o some_o of_o the_o nobility_n and_o clergy_n to_o move_v his_o majesty_n in_o our_o behalf_n that_o he_o will_v appoint_v some_o noble_a person_n to_o hear_v our_o grievance_n and_o in_o some_o way_n relieve_v we_o that_o such_o who_o god_n in_o mercy_n have_v preserve_v their_o life_n and_o
