You see, the state of North Caro- lina gives to ex-Confederates who have lost legs or arms money to buy artificial limbs, and to U ‘who are totally disabled, incapacitated from work, the state allows a pension of $100 a year. ‘The au- ditor's report showed that the entire number of ex-Confederates who had received aid in any shape from the state was about :2,00, not 20,000 by a good deal.
