Arrears of Pay and Bounty-Army and Navy.

Now, THEREFORE, it is adjudged [etc., proceeding as in other cases of judgments in civil actions, according to the relief awarded. See FORMS OF PRACTICE, Vol. II.]

CHAPTER VIII.

ARREARS OF PAY AND BOUNTY.

Arrears of pay, due an officer or a soldier at the time of his decease, are payable to the following persons, in the order named: 1. (If the deceased was married) to his widow. 2. (If no widow survives) to his child or children, (through their guardian, if minors). 3. (If he died unmarried) to the father. 4. (If the father is dead) to the mother. 5. (If both parents are dead) to the brothers and sisters jointly. Lastly, To the heirs generally.

The bounty of $100 is payable to the relatives of a deceased soldier in the following order-viz., 1. To the widow (if there be one). 2. To the children (if any), share and share alike. 3. To the father (provided he has not abandoned the support of his family). 4. To the mother, if the father be dead, or has abandoned the support of his family. 5. To the brothers and sisters.

The father, mother, and brothers and sisters must be residents of the United States, in order to receive the bounty.

The above is payable to the relatives of all volunteers in the war of the rebellion, and to the relatives of all who enlisted in the regular service since July 1, 1861, or who enlisted during the year 1862.

Widows of commissioned officers, and of soldiers dying after being discharged, are not entitled to bounty, nor are the widows of deceased three months' volunteers.

No money can be paid to the heirs of a deceased soldier who have in any manner aided or abetted the existing rebellion.

Soldiers discharged on account of wounds received in battle are entitled to the bounty of $100. No other soldier is entitled unless he has served for a period of two years, or during the war, if sooner ended.

The application and deposition required must be subscribed and sworn to before a judge, commissioner, notary public, or justice of the peace, duly authorized to administer oaths, accompanied by the certificate and seal of a court of record as to the fact of the said judge, etc., being duly commissioned, and acting in his official capacity at the time of the execution of the foregoing papers. The taking out of "letters of administration" is unnecessary, except in such cases as it may be required by the accounting officers. All claims for arrears of pay and bounty may be sent directly to the office of the Second Auditor of the Treasury Department, Washington.

Letters of inquiry in relation to a claim should specify the name of the deceased, and the company, regiment, and State to which he belonged; and in all cases, to secure an answer, the name, post-office, and State of the writer should be distinctly written.
