This is to Certify that Captain Demcey Gregory of my Regt. is neither indebted to the United States of America nor the Officers or Soldiers of the Tenth North Carolina Battalion to the best of my knowledge, and from the unsettled State of his affairs occasioned by the death of his father-in-law, that he has my leave to resign his commission.

Given under my hand, May 20th, 1778.

ABR'M SHEPPARD.
Col. X. N. C. Batt.

Endorsed: “Captain Demcey Gregory of the 10th North Carolina Battalion has my permission to resign his Commission.
