Pension Certificates
GOVERNMENT AGENT SEEMING OUT
SHARKS AND UsURERs

There are great many individuals and
firms all through the country who are still
engaged in the illegal practice Of loaning
money TO pensioners and receiving and
holding their pension certificates as security
therefor. The United States officers are
very DESTROYS that all pensioners whose Ger
tifcates are in the hands OF such men. shall
notify them at once. and their certificates
will be recovered and the unlawful holders
of them prosecuted. While it is violation
Of law for pensioner to hypo,heca,e his or
her pension certificates, entire immunity is
promised BY the officers, whose only desire
is to stop the further prosecution of this
business BY such money lenders. All pen
sioners in this vicinity whose certificates are
now pledged or holden as security, will be
able TO recover the same by reporting the
facts to Henry Rogers. special examiner Of
the L. 5. pension bureau. at the Collectors
room, Custom House, in this city. The
following is the law relating TO the hypothe-
eating of pension certificates:
ANY pledge, mortgage. sale, assignment
or transfer Of any right. claim. or interest
in any pension which has been. or may here
after be. granted. shall be void and OF no
effect. and any person who shall pledge, or
receive as pledge, mortgage, sale assign
ment or transfer Of any right. claim or
interest in any pension, or pension GER
tifcate, which has been, or may here
after be granted or issued, or who shall
hold the SAME as collateral security
for any debt, or promise, or upon any pre-
text OF such security. or promise, shall be
guilty Of a misdemeanor. and upon con
,iciion thereof shall be fined in a sum not
exceeding 800 and the costs Of the prose
cutlon; and any person who shall retain
the certificate Of pensioner and refuse TO
surrender the same upon the demand Of the
commissioner ofpensions, or a United States
pension agent. or any other person. author
lied BY the commissioner ofpensions. or the
pensioner. to receive the same. shall be
guilty Of a misdemeanor. and upon con
,iction thereof shall be fined in a sum not
exceeding 800 and the costs of the prose
cution.'
