Pension Ohice, March 81, 1852.
TVNHE sUBJOlNED FORM OF DECLA-
Il RATION, to be observed by all persons app
plying to the Pension Office for Bounty Land. un-
der the act Of 22d March, 1852, entitled can act
TO make Bounty Land Warrants assignable, and
for other purposes" is published in connexion
with the act itself
This form is only SO far variant from that pre-
scribed under the act Of 2Sth September, 1885, as
to adapt it to the recent act of March 22d
The Declaration must be sworn to before some
Just &c OF the peace other officer authorized to
administer oahs for general purposes, who must
certify the same.
The official character and signature of the ma
gstrate who may administer the oath must be GER
tilted by the clerk of the proper court Of record Of
his county, under the seal Of the court.
Such certificate must accompany every case.
Ii will he perceived, that in the 4th section of the
act OF 22d March, no provision is made for widows
or minor children, but only for the party who rem
dered the service.
The service contemplated by the act is that
rendered under call by the authorities of any
State to repel apprehcnded hostilties from any TO-
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
would entite him to forty acres, or any other
amount, under a previous law, he cannot claim n
increased quantity for other services first recog-
Missed by this act.
II the applicant desires to avail himself of the
9th section of the act, he must, in his declaration
state the place at which he was enrolled with his
company, the distance thence to the point at which
he was mustered into service, the place at which
he was discharged, and the distance thence to the
place Of his original enrolment. 1t must also be
clearly shown, by the testimony Of persons certi
fled to be credible, that his statements in these
spects are true, and the witnesses should specify
the manner in which they obtained their informa-
ton. J. E. HEATH,
Commissioner Of Pensions.
