MEMORIAL.

To The Senate and House Of Representatives. offhe
United States in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned, respectfully represents that
they are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th of September, 1880, that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants arc worth
more to them than the patented lands would be,
Thai they do not expect or desire to reside on Ia,
land thus granted, that If patented to them the
expense Of agencies and taxes will be an anrnal
charge, reducing the value of the grant, which
they could avoid if permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assume e.
that the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands. are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas many Of them are among the most intel
ligen and respectable citizens of the States. They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
NAV be so modified to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, &c.
