der the act OF 22d M'rch, 1852, entitled 'An act
10 make Bounty Land Warrants asslgnable, ana
for other purposes" 10 published IN cohheAioh
with the act itselt.
This form is only so far variant from that pre-
scribed under the act of 18th September, 1900, as
10 adapt it TO the recent act OF March I'D
The Declaration must be sworn TO before some
ilistc OF the peace or other officer authorized to
administer oaths fJr general purposes, who must
certify the same.
The official character and signature of the ma
gistrate Tho may administer the oath must be
titled by the clerk of the proper court Of record Of
his county, under the seal Of the court
Such certificate must accompany epsry case
Il will be perceived, that in the 4th section Of the
act OF 22d March, no provision 10 made Tor widows
or minor children, but only for the party who rem
dered the service.
The service contemplated by the act is tha
rendered under call by the authorities OF any
State to repel apprehended hostlities from any fo
reign government or Indian tribe, and whose ser
vices have been paid for by the United States sub
sequent to the 18Th June, 1872
IL should be specially noted that no one whose
service was recognised by any previous act can
claim under this, except where his mileage has
not been allowed in the computation OF his service
Hence, If the soldier has rendered such service as
would entitle him to forty acres, any other
amount, under previous law, he cannot claim an
increased quantity for other services hrst recog
missed by this act.
II the applicant desires to avnil himself OF thu
9th section of the act, he IN ust in his declaration
state the place at which he was enrolled with hi
company, the distance thence to the point at whict
ne was mustered into service, the place at which
he was discharged, and the distance thence to thu
place OF his original enrolment. IL must also b
clearly shown, by the testimony of persons certi
fled to be credible, that his statements in these
spects are true, and the witnesses should specil,
the manner in which they obtained their iniorna
