"A woman divorced from her husband, who
Is s!lil living, Is not IN the general acceptaLion
OF the term, or i'll tEc sense Of the law, T.

under the second clause Of the second section
OF the Enrolling act. Whether such q claim TO
exemption might not be allowed in this case
under The third clause Of the section, cannot
be determined with the proofs before me, since
there is nc evidence offered that the mother is
either aged or pfrm.''
In the case OF clerks of naval or military
commanders.
OPINION.
al see no sufficient reason for treating the
clerks OF naval or military commanders, as in
the ilitary service, within the meaning of
the Enrolling act."
In the case OF q widow having three sons,
two OF " hom are in the payRl service.
OPINION.
'ln the case OF widow having three sons,
two OF whom are in the naval Ser vice, the law
must he held to exempt the third, provided the
port. The object of the law was 10 prevent
destitute widows from being entirely deprived
OF support, by having their sons forced into the
military service; bnt this object would be de-
feated in the case named, if, with two sons in
the navy. the third, and only one remaining,
could be drafted"
IL the ease of person nvictrd Of felony and
pardoHed before the passage o; tie Enrolment
