| Title | Enlistment document for volunteers in company of William Van Dueser |
| Date | 21 February 1781 |
| Author | Painter, L. (fl. 1781) |
| Document Type | Military document |
| Content Description | Signed by 23 men to show they have voluntarily enlisted in the company of artillery under the command of William Van Dueser to serve as a guard for the town of New Haven, Connecticut until the first day of 1782. Several people signed their name, but were scratched off the list later. It appears that the document was created by Lieutenant Painter since his signature is below a note that states "those Inlisted the First of January together with myself Jany 1 1781."
