PENSION RULINGS.
Three Decisions of Importance to Old Sol
diers.

Ihree Decisions OF importance I'D Olu SOL
diers.
Assistant Secretary Bussey has rendered
three pension decisions in which is in
volvcd the important question o! when may
and when may not a soldier be considered
lin the line Of duty" they are as follows:
The first case is that OF w. II. Brokenshnw,
who was injured at Jackson, Mich. i'm 1865, by
three fellow-solders jumping on hlI' while he
was climbing into his bunk Con missioner
Black rejected the claim on the ground that the
injury was not received in the line OF duty.
The Assistant Secretary overrules this decision,
holding that the claimant was in his proper
place. ready TO perform such duly ms he might
be called upon TO do, and the injury alleged
as the ground OF pension happened 60
him without any fault or neglect ON his part.
Another sc is that of c. H. Sedgwck, late mid
from n comrade whom he was Inviting and
teasing" The assistant secretary sustains the
former decision rejecting the application on the
ground that the claimant contributed directly
To produce the cause OF his injury, and was at
the time engaged in manner lnanifestly in
violation OF the rules OF the service. The
third case is that OF Elizabeth Hull,
widow OF William Hull, soldier who died in
n military prison AT Nashville, Tenn, OF in
Illumination OF the pleura contracted in the
prison. The soldier, it appears from the owl
dence arrested and confined in the prison
for being absent from his company and reg-
ment without permission. In this case Mr..
Bussey says: TO entitle n widow 10 pension,
the wound, the injury, or tho disease which
caused tho husbands death must have been
connected rs a result, with the compliance by
him with the requirements of military duty.
such connection between the fatal disease and
the service did not exist in this case The for
ller decision is adhered TO.
