The National tribune., 1901-05-02

counted for on the muster-out roll. which
was done by reporting him discharged
That he was discharged, as shown by the
record, is not disputed, and cannot be de-
MED, and if he was SO discharged he
must, necessarily, have been an enlisted
man. The Department is, therefore, OF
the opinion that the official record of the
deceased soldiers military service clearly
and indisputably establishes the fact that
he was 4 duly enlisted man in the military
service of the United States, and that his
said service was terminated by discharge
which, in the absence of anything to the
contrary, must be presumed to have been
an honorable discharge.
The benefits of the general pension
laws are extended by the provisions of sec
tion 1853. Revised Statutes, to any en-
listed man, however employed. in the mil
itary or naval service of the United States
or in its Marine Corps, whether regularly
mustered or not, disabled etc; and the
third section of the act of June 21, 1890,
provides a pension, under the conditions
therein prescribed, for the widow of any
officer or enlisted man who served 80 days
or mere in the Army OF Navy of the
United States during the late war of the
rebellion, and who was honorably dis
charged etc.
Although the official record of the de-
ceased soldiers service fails TO indicate the
exact length of time he served. or when,
or how he was discharged, further than
has been above indicated, the testimony
obtained by a special examination of this
case of officers and comrades who served
in the same regiment with the soldier clear
ly and satisfactorily establishes the fact
that he did actually serve therein under
said enlistment from the date of his mus
term until some time about the month of
June, 1862, or even longer, a much longer
period, III any event, than 30 days.
