\ Pension wlndle.

A bold aftenl! made to swiEdle Mrs.
Whitney, the W dow ali old soldier has
been exposed in st. Louis. Mo. A man
named Doherty. accompanied byu woman.
went be ore a notary public and desired hin,
to take the &C now!edgment Of Mrs. Whit
ney to certain pension papers received fro II,
the pension agent at Chicago. The papers
were drawn up and the womai's mark at
tached. she stain that she could not write,
aud Duhertyi forwarded the papers to CHI
cago. A little while alter Doherty appeared
again to the notary and said that the pen
sion agent had written that Mrs. Whitney
had always signed her own name,
and wanted to know why 1t had not
been done in this case. Doherty ex-
planned that the woman had ielon on her
finger, and asked the notary to make
statement to that effect, which was done,
the notary telling Doherty to take the
paper before the county clerk and have it
uttested. Instead Of doing this Doherty
forged the notary's name to the paper and
Gent It OH. The agent was familiar with
the noterv's signature, and at once caused
DoliertyS arrest for forgery. 1t appears
that Dohertys wife was the woman who
"personated Nrs. Whitney. and she was also
arrested. 1t is said that the real Mrs
Whitney is living in Chicago, Is very poor,
and is not aware that she is on the pension
rolls o Uncle Sam. or that she will receive
the snug sum OF - 8l5 in u lump. Doherty
procured the certificate by forgery after
learning that the pension had been granted.
