for manual labor; that he is needy and poor, and should receive aid from
Virginia, and if said county court should send a certificate of the facts to
the auditor of public accounts, he is directed to place the name of S. J.
Young on the pension list, and pay him annually the sum of fifteen dol-
Jars, on and alter the first day of April, eighteen hundred and ninety-
eight.
