Mrs. Tadlock Gets a Pension
A. N. Harring received a telegram last week from our congressman, Hon. H. M. Towner, stating the special bill granting a pension of $12.00 per month to Aunt Patsy Tadlock, widow of the late Ben Tadlock of this place, had passed the lower house of congress. Her late husband was a Mexican War pensioner for more than twenty years, but owing to some provisions of the law which seem inconsistent, the department ruled that the widow was not entitled to a pension under the circumstances. Congressman Towner has appealed to and immediately introduced a special bill for her relief which will no doubt pass the Senate and become a law.
