To The Senate and House of Representatives. Of III
United States in Congress assembled: The memora
of the undersigned, respectfully represents tina
they are entitled to Bounty Land, snder the nc
Of 18th Of September, 1880 that they are informed
and believe that the unlocated warrants are worth
more them than the patented lands would be,
that they do not expect desire to reside on the
land thus granted, that il patented to them, the
expense Of agencies and taken will be an annual
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
they could avoid IL permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assun rs
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
ligent and respectable citizens Of the States They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may ba no modified az to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, &c.
