The charge of fraud in the settlement of a pen- sion claim brought against Major George W.

As he had no money, Major Johnes gave him a note to the Old Soldiers’ Home, where he emained for some weeks. When his written pag og for a pension was filed it was found at he had served but fifty-seven days, and oa not entitled, for the reason that the law grants pensions only to such soldiers of the war of 1812 as at least sixty days. Making careful inquiry Major Johnes ascertained that, countin the number ot days it required the old travel to the place of muster, (from eepsie to New York city on fuot,) he had pen ee the sixty da: specitied b toe ¢ law was thus lil in this ——_ case because doth M Major Johnes and Commi Baker believed t the old soldier ully entitled to for his patriotic services.

The commissioner thereupon cancelled the pension. The above is the statement of Commissioner Baker, who acquits his chief clerk of any in- tention to defraud in the case referred to.
