How it is shown: Complete image as supplied; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.
Keep in mind: Confirmed that the form names Nathaniel Oak (father, birthplace Chelsea, Vt.) and Abagail Cartland; the form's Nathaniel is read as Nathaniel Oak born 1780. Whether that Nathaniel is the Chelsea pensioner Nathaniel (1751-1840) or his son is a separate, still-qualified question.
