Madam,

When I Sign'd your Memorial for the Treasury Board certifying the Death of Late Lieut. POLLARD, I did it because it was true & I am ready at all times to Certify that he was Killed at Savannah by a Shot I think the 4th of October 1779 when under my Command in one of the New York Battalions in which he acted as Quarter Master. I Wish that this may be of Service to Continue upon you the pension they then granted to you, your friends may inform further of the loss he was in entering in that Regiment.

I have the honor to be
Madam
Your most Obedient
humble Servant
A PREVOST

Mrs. Hannah POLLARD

Great Britain, Public Record Office, Audit Office, Class 13, Volume 75, folio 244.
