GOOD NEWS FOR GREEN.
A Pension Has Been Awarded Connecti-
cut Colored Veteran and Arrears for Six
Months Are Awaiting Him Here.

cut Co1ored Veteran and Arrears for Six
Months Are Awaiting Him Here.
Who knows of a brave colored veteran
of the war named James H. Green?
Says the New York Herald: Who
evoer does can by informing the pen
sion office, insure him a pension as a
reward for the service he rendered his
country in it's time of sorest need. The
pension was awarded him six months
ago. He had then disappeared and the
agents Of the pension department have
not since been able to discover his
whereabouts. The money due him
for two quarters is now awaiting his
application for it at the pension agency
in this city.
Green, who is nearly fifty-five years
old, called to see DR.. Charles F. Myers
at No. 261 West Thirty seventh street,
in December, 1895. He came recon-
mended by a well known colored ply
stefan, and told how he had been suf-
fering for long time from rheumatism
and heart disease, and he believed that
If DR.. Myers would recommend that he
be granted pension he would receive
some assistance from the government.
DR.. Myers was not inclined at first to
place much confidence in Green's story,
but decided to make further inquiries.
He learned that Green had served with
a Connecticut regiment and fought for
three years during the most exciting
period of the civil war He had sew
eral times received the concentrations
of his officers and was regarded as one
of the pluckiest men in his company.
He was living at the time he made
his application in West Fifty third
street, between Seventh and Eighth
avnues, and was very poor. He had
been married, but had lost his wife,
and at the time he applied for pen
sion was nearly destitute. He told DR..
Myers that he had not asked for a pen
sion before because he did not believe
the government would recognize the
claims of a poor old negro, for whom
10 one cared.
Dr. Myers transmitted his applica-
ton to the pension department in
Washington, with the proofs to sustain
it that he had gathered. About six
months ago an employee of the pension
office called on DR.. Myers and informed
him that a considerable pension had
been granted to the negro veteran"
