TIM Z subscriber has opened in the city of Wash
IL ington AGENCY for the prosecution OF
all descriptions Of claims against the Genera
Government.
His perfect knowledge of all the Pension Laws,
and the places where deposited all evidence of
service now extant, will enable him to establish
many claims which have long remained suspend
ed for want Of proof and proper attention.
He, therefore, offers to the public his services,
particularly in the following cases, VIZ:
Suspended and rejected claims under all the Pen
sion Laws:
Applications for increase Of pension, under any
Of the Pension Laws, where the pensioners are
dissatisfied with their present allowance.
For all those widows who received, or are ent-
tied to receive, the years pension due the 9TH
of March, 1913; under the acts of July 7th, 1888,
March, Sd, lS43, and June l7th 1874, being those
who were married before the LIST of January, 1894,
he will undertake To establish, under the act of
Eel ruary ID, IS4S, their claims to pensions for
life commencing on the 4th Of March, lS4s, when
their pensions under the foregoing acts termi-
uated.
For all those widows Of revolutionary officers
or soldiers, who were married after 1893, but be-
fore January 2d, 1900, he viii undertake TO estab
ish their claims TO pensions for life, commencing
on the 4th OF March, 1913, under the act Of July
30, lS4S.
To all those widows ofrevoluiionary pensioners
whose claims have been rejected or suspended for
want of proof of service; or those who are in the
receipt of pension under any Of the pension
laws, less than that received by their husbands
under the acts Of May 18th, 1923, or June Tth !,
1882, he will ensure the same amount per an
mum that their husbands received, from the time
the pension is made to commence by the law un-
der which they claimed or have been pensonsd
