Description: US Congressional Imprint – original documentJanuary 31, 1838Report from the House Military Affairs Committee Re: Captain Matthew A. Patrick posthumous rank and pension upgrade Mary A. Patrick, widow of Matthew A. Patrick, is asking that her husband be posthumously, given the rank of Captain. She satisfactorily proves to the committee that he had met all of the requirements at the time of his death in March 1834, while commanding a regiment of the US Artillery. (Essentially, he had been doing the job and promised the promotion by his superiors but the paperwork was never filed.) Committee finds that her testimony, as well as supporting evidence, justifies this upgrade in rank and the increase in pension that she will receive as a result. Congressional Committee imprints are internal publications prepared or commissioned by congressional committees to inform committee members’ legislative or oversight activities. Committee prints are not always submitted for publication, but when they are, this information can prove to be a helpful source of background information. The information contained in the prints could include drafts of reports and bills, directories, bibliographies, statistics, staff research reports, transcripts of markup sessions, studies, hearing and hearing excerpts, digests, and analysis.
