with the ease with which one could
blnGder. In the second paragraph I am
msoe to say that Mr. Wright cou}d liue

ser'ence being Upon the question al is-

Later on find myself saying, "If Mir
Wright, after in my fret letter that l had

"reading" is so obviously omitted by
mistake that should feel sad IL any one

No one seeks to Withdraw pensions
from those soldiers who are entitled

second, to limit payments to soldiers

ent upon them when the pension was
earned.-New York Tribune.
