ucr.oo:.i D., Veterans

The Massachuse. : Worcester Spy Says
"The extraordinary longevity of the survi.
vors Of the war of ISL is certainly a curl.
GUS fact we'll worthy Of notice. That was
not great war not many troops were sn.
gagged, and no very large force mustered
into the service Of the United States, and
the war came to an end almost sixty.one
years ago. Yet the Commissioner Of Pen.
sions reports 1875 survivors of that war
on the rolls o. the Pension Office. Very
few, indeed, Of these can be less than eighty
years Of age. and the number must b
nearly if not quite ten per cent. Of the
whole force mustered for service. If the
veterans of the late war Of the rebellion
prove so tenacious of life. nearly two hun.
dred thousan' Of them will survive in the
year 1926. We should be very glad to be.
Neve that all of them would live much
longer than that, but We cannot expect It,
for it is against the course Of nature. It il
hard to resist the conviction that . large
share Of the fifteen thousand veterans Il
1919 are impostors."
