MARsHALLToWN, lOWA.-What is
known as the soldiers bounty case has
been finally adjudicated and 149 claimants
are entitled to about $50 each. During the
civil war the board Of supervisors created
what was known as the soldiers bounty
fund, raised by a special tax, amounting
to something over $4,000. Some 255 SOL
diers were paid $3.50 each. The remainder
was turned into the county treasury and
remained there, practically forgotten.
There were 149 soldiers who did not re-
ceive any money. About two years ago
Cloud H. Brock began an investigation
and later instituted suit to recover his
share. The suit was successful and re-
suited in an order from the court for dis
tribution Of the fund, about $4,000, to the
rightful claimants. The clerk Of courts
will begin the distribution this week.
