He states that at the time he made his application as aforesaid he knew of no person by whom he could prove his 18 months service as a regular Soldier, as set forth in his Original papers on file as aforesaid, but has recently learned that he can make proof of said 18 months service as a regular Soldier. He hereby refers to his Original papers now on file, and asks leave to file this as an amended declaration, and that he be permitted to introduce further proof in support of his 18 months service as aforesaid in order that he may be granted an increase of pension. Sworn and subscribed the day and year aforesaid W. H. Berry, JPWC S/ Abraham Hunt, X his mark [The additional proof the veteran offered was the certificate of the NC Comptroller General that someone named Abraham Hunt received £40 in specie for military duty during the Revolution. Such proof must have been deemed insufficient, as the veteran's pension was not increased.] The actual burial site of Abraham Hunt has been lost to history. The contribution that he made to American history deserved to be recognized and recorded for posterity, so we placed a Memorial Stone in his honor in the Cantrell Gilliand Memorial Garden. May this memorial serve as an expression of the gratitude and respect we owe him for risking his life and braving the unknown to help build a new country: our America. | Hunt, Abraham (I3653)
