survivors in that war and the wi¬ INdows receive 8a month For theIndian wars three survivors twentywidows receive pensions Thereare 216 survivors of the Mexicanwar in Kentucky who receive pen ¬

sions and 407 widowsThe Civil war has the largest list

to its credit there being 5669 sur-vivors and 2646 widows who re-ceive

¬

pensionsFor servioe in the SpanishAmer ¬

ican war 628 survivors receivedpensions and 211 widows About

1000000 is distributed annuallythrough the Louisville office inpensionsIt

be noticed that in the earTier wars the widows outnumberthe veterans by a large Majoritywhile in the later wars the veter¬

ans outnumber the widowsThe reason assigned for this Ls

that veterans marry young wivesand it is probable that in twenty erthirty years from now the widowswho receive pensions will greatlyoutnumber veterans of the Civil
