Chap. 524.—An ACT for the relief of Mrs. Margaret A. White, widow of W. T.
White, formerly an officer at the penitentiary.

Approved April 2, 1902.

Whereas, W. T. White, formerly an officer of the penitentiary of Vir-
ginia, regularly and duly commissioned as assistant superintendent, lost
several days by sickness, and for which B. M. Lynn, at that time super-
intendent of the penitentiary, deducted the sum of thirty dollars from
his salary, as exhibited on the accompanying certified statement; and,

Whereas, it has always been the rule of the institutions of Virginia
not to charge officers with a few days lost from sickness or providential
reasons: therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the auditor
of public accounts, upon satisfactory proof to the said auditor that the
allegations set forth in the preamble of this bill are correct and true
beyond doubt, then he is hereby directed to issue to Margaret A. White,
the widow of the said W. T. White, now deceased, a warrant on the treas-
urer of Virginia for the sum of thirty dollars.

2. This act shal] be in force from its passage.
