Printed circular, 4pp, 8.5 x 11 in. Pensions. Indian Wars-Mexican Wars. Ca 1900s.
The lengthy imprint informs veterans of their rights to pensions. One particular section reads:
Very nearly all the survivors of the Indian Wars are not considered wholly disabled for manual labor and many of them are actually in a helpless condition...Congress should take some steps whereby the same benefits may be bestowed upon them as are now enjoyed by the survivors of the Mexican War.
The circular goes on to site an act passed granting certain Mexican War survivors twelve dollars a month instead of the eight awarded to Indian War survivors.
Flaking towards the top margin with some minor tears on the folds and margins.
