MAJ. A. H. PETTlBONE.

Maj. Pettibone was born in Bedford, near
Cleveland, o., in 1895. Left an orphan at an
early age without dollar of patrimony he has
been the architect of his own fortune. A poor
boy has little chance for success in the battle of
life without the advantages of education. He
realized this fact in early years and set to work
to obtain that which was worth more than
money. Fortunately for him he entered the
celebrated school at Hiram, o., during the time
when James A. Garfield was a teacher. of the
classics in that institution. Here began a
friendship which only ended when his old
teacher lay cold in death. From Hiram he
went to the University of Michigan, where he
graduated in 1859.
The war of the rebellion was then looming
up in the near future. The election of 1860
resulted in the election of Abraham Lincoln.

WASHINGTON ID. O., Aug IL, 1886.
The following act Of Congress. approved Aug.
4, 1856, amends the pension laws by increasing
the pensions of soldiers and sailors who have
lost an arm or leg in the service:
BE il enacted by the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatyes OF the United States Of America in Con-
gress assembled, That from and after the passage
OF this act all persons the pension rolls and all
persons hereafter granted n pension, who while in
the military or naval service of the United states
foot or been totally disabled in the same shall re-
ceive u pension of 500 n month shat ali persons
now the pension rolls, and all persons hereafter
granted pension, who in like manner shall have
lost either arm at or above the elbow u leg
at above the knee, or been totally disabled in
the same, shall receive pension of $50 per month;
and that all persons now ON the pension rolls and
all persons hereafter granted pension who in like
manner shall have lost either arm at the shout
der joint or leg at the hip JOINT, near the
Joint to prevent the of artificial limb,
shall receive pension at the rate of S5 per month
PrOUided, That nothing contained in this act shall
be construed to repeal section 1893 OF the Revised
Statutes Of the United States to change the rate
of SIS per month therein mentioned to be proper
tionatey divided for any degree of disability estab-
lished for which section 1920 makes provision.
Under the provisions Of this act the pensions
of those who have actually lost an arm or a
leg will be increased without subjeeting claim
ants to the expense or trouble of an applca-

Ii has been found impracticable to pursue
the same course IN the cases OF many of those
who have not actually lost leg or an arm but
who claim to suffer a total disability in the
same also in the cases of those who claim to be
unable to wear an artificial limb. Many OF
these eases will require medical examinations
to determine whether the claimant is entitled

act.
While the regulations Of the Office governing
the claims for increase under the above act
have not yet been fully matured and adopted,
it is the intention to settle all cases of the sew

lest practicable moment.
No correspondence on the part Of claimant is
necessary or desirable.

The subject Of our sketch was Second Lieu

and finally Major of that regiment. He
served with his company in most of the opera

that day he took AZ muskets into the fight. At
