soldier.
Approved March 7, 1900.
Whereas L. E. Estis, a disabled Confederate soldier, is suffering from
old age and poverty, and was a true and gallant soldier during the war,
and was loyal to Virginia; therefore,
1. Be it enacted by the gencral assembly of Virginia, That the
county court of Albemarle shall examine into the condition of the
above-named L. E. Estis, a Confederate soldier, and should it be found
that he was true and loyal to Virginia through the war, and that he is
now afflicted and disabled, and incapacitated for manual labor by reason
of injury, disease, or old age; that he is poor and needy and should
receive aid from Virginia, and if the county court of Albemarle shall
send a certificate of the fact to the auditor of public accounts in Vir-
ginia, then the auditor of public accounts is directed to place the name
of L. E. Estis on the pension list, and pay him annually the sum of
fifteen dollars, on and after the first day of April, nineteen hundred.
2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
