Whereas James M. Snavely, a disabled Confederate soldier of com-
pany B, forty-fifth regiment of Virginia infantry, was a true and gallant
soldier during the late war, was loyal to Virginia; and

Whereas he is now suffering from the following disabilities—to-wit:

From a gun-shot wound received in the leg, from which he is now
suffering, and unable to do manual labor; therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the county
court of Wythe shall examine into the condition of the above-named
James M. Snavely, a Confederate soldier, and should it be that he was
true and loyal to Virginia through the war, and that he is now afflicted
and incapacitated for manual labor, that he is needy and poor, and
should receive aid from Virginia; and if the county court of Wythe
should send a certificate of the facts to the auditor of public accounts
of Virginia, then the auditor of public accounts is directed to place
the name of James M. Snavely on the pension list, and pay him annually
the sum of fifteen dollars, on and after the first day of April, nineteen
hundred.
