Transcribed by Pat Lowe from CO48/43 at the National
Archives in Kew, London. Not sure why this was filed
with the Cape correspondence - perhaps they sent him
the circular!

Midleton Jul 25, 1819
Honor'd Sir
I William HUMPHREYS of the 88th Reg't, who have
served 5 years, 307 days as appears by my discharge
from said Reg't, do take the liberty of addressing you
for to grant me the privilege of proceeding to the
British Settlements North America which belong to his
Majesty as I have received no pension allowance
although being wounded in the battle of Ortes,
Portugal, Spain and France. And in consequence of the
reduction of the troops at the time of peace, was sent
home together with many others. I therefore thank you
to grant me the permission of proceeding to America as
I understand you are invested with every power
thereunto belonging and as s soldier and a loyal
subject will feel highly indebted to you for your
compliance and will be ever thankful.
William HUMPHREYS

NB If this should merit an answer, please direct to
Midleton, County of Cork, Ireland, all I have in
family is my wife and myself as I understand it must
be inserted
