The Secretary at War NORWICH, _Novr.

24, 1831._ SIR,--Not having been favoured with an answer to the letter which I last addressed to you concerning the arrears of disembodied allowance due to Lieut.

John Borrow of the West Norfolk Militia, I again take the liberty of submitting this matter to your consideration.

More than six months have elapsed since by virtue of a power of attorney granted to me by Lieut.
Borrow, I made demand at the army Pay Office for a portion of those arrears, being the amount of two affidavits which were produced, but owing to the much unnecessary demur which ensued, chiefly with respect to the power of Attorney, since declared to be valid, that demand has not hitherto been satisfied.

I therefore am compelled to beg that an order may be issued to the Pay Office for the payment to me of the sums specified in the said affidavits, that the amount may be remitted to Lieut.
Borrow, he being at present in great need thereof.
