This day personally appeared before me a Justice of the Peace for the County & State above written—Mrs Susan Wright who being first duly sworn according to Law testafies and says that she is the sister of Mrs Lucy Brown now applying for a Pension and has a most distinct recollection of her marriage with Col Thomas Brown the precise date she is unable to state but from a reference to the family Bible she is fully convinced it took place on the 13th of Jay. 1780. This affiant has a perfect recollection of the period when Col Brown was confined as a prisoner at Wilmington, being small she was allowed to approach the Court House in which he was confined and to peep at him through the side of the house.

She fully confirms the statements of her sister Mrs Lord in relation to the survice of Col Brown after his marriage with her sister—She is as well convinced from recollection and traditionary evidence that Col Brown served the best portion of the War of the Revolution as she can be of any fact whatever—And in conclusion she testafies that her sister is now a widow and has never married since the death of Col: Brown. Given under my had this 3d day of april 1839.
