4 BOARD HAS BEEN RECENTLY AP-
IN pointed by the Secretary of War to exam
inc and report to Washington upon claims of
this character. The President Of this Board is
in Nashville, and has fitted up an office. The
other members of the Board are expected this
week and the business will commence at once,
We have organized Branch Office, in this
city. for the purpose of prosecuting this particu
lar class of claims. Our House has been en-
gagged for the past two months in preparing and
prosecuting these claims before the Missouri and
Kentucky Commissioners, and is familiar with
all the rules and decisions there made as well as
the most recent rulings of the Secretary War on
the subject.
We therefore offer our services to Attorneys
Agents, and Claimants, throughout the State
believing we enjoy unusual facilities for serving
them. These claims win be examined first by
the Board, but final action can only be taken by
the proper Department at Washington.
Our purpose is to attend personally before the
Board in Tennessee, the better to enable US to
serve clients at Washington.
We desire one or more correspondents in each
county, with whom we will divide fees. And
we will furnish TO them all needed blanks and
printed Instructions, and keep them fully in
formed from time to time Of the action OF the

full instructions to enable them to prepare their

course. The class of 1857 numbered "a; that

point the classes were much diminished by
the outbreak of the war, a large number of
the students enlisting in the Federal army,

The graduating class Of 1864 contained only
