Chap. 1393.—An ACT for the relief of Isaac Boyd, a Confederate soldier.

Approved March 7, 1900.

Whereas Isaac Boyd, a Confederate soldier, was a true and gallant
soldier during the war between the states, was loyal to Virginia; and

Whereas he is now seventy-seven years old and totally incapacitated
for work, and without means of support; therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the
county court of Patrick shall examine into the condition of the said
Isaac Boyd, a Confederate soldier, and should it be that he was true
and loyal to Virginia during the war, and that he is now old and in-
capacitated for manual labor, that he is needy and poor, and should
receive aid from Virginia, and if the county court of Patrick county
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 Isaac Boyd 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.
