Chap. 605.—An ACT for the relief of William Gunter, a disabled Confederate
soldier, of Patrick county, Virginia.

Approved March 8, 1896.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the
auditor of public accounts be, and he is hereby, authorized to place
the name of William Gunter, of the county of Patrick, on the list of
Confederate soldiers who lost one leg in the late war who are entitled
to commutation to disabled soldiers, allowed by an act of the gene-
ral assembly, as approved March the fifth, eighteen hundred and
eighty-eight, as amended March the first, eighteen hundred and
ninety-two, and that said Gunter, as such disabled soldier, be en-
titled to the profits and provisions of said acts of assembly as fully
as if he had lost his leg in action; but said William Gunter is to be
listed and paid as of the beginning of the fiscal year eighteen hun-
dred and ninety-five: provided, however, before being placed upon
the pension list the county court of Patrick county shall certify to
the auditor of public accounts that it was proven before it that the
loss of the leg was occasioned by injuries received in the service of
the Confederate states.

2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
