Excerpt from Digest of Decisions and Opinions Relating to Pensions and Bounty Land: With a Supplement Containing the Pension Laws, Arranged and Consolidated, the Bounty-Land Laws, Laws Enacted and Repealed Since March 4, 1861, and the Rules of Practice as to Appeals, Also an Historical Introduction Narrating the Origin and Development Of In 1881 Calvin B. Walker, deputy commissioner, by order of the Commissioner of Pensions, compiled a treatise including a digest of the laws of the United States governing the granting of Army and Navy pensions and bounty-land warrants and decisions of the Secre tary of the Interior, with the rulings and orders of the Commissioner of Pensions thereunder; which treatise was published under the authority of the Secretary of the Interior. In 1885 a more extended treatise, of like character, was prepared by Frank B. Curtis and William H. Webster, and published under similar authority. These, with the earlier publication of Mayo and Moulton, substantially represent the official publications on the subject of pensions and bounty-land laws and their interpretation by those charged with the duty of executing them. Commencing in 1887, the Department has issued eight printed vol umes of decisions under these laws, embracing over twelve hundred cases. Previous to 1887 the decisions were written in bound ledgers.

Excerpt from An Analytical Digest of the Pension and Bounty Land Laws: Decision of Secretaries and Opinions of Attorney-Generals Thereon; From and Regulations Prescribed by the Pension Office, and Explanatory Comments; The Whole So Arranged as to Intelligible to Every Clamant The system of granting Pensions and Bounty Lands, in prescribed cases, has become so thoroughly incorporated into our policy, that even those who desire, can never expect to see, its discontinuance. Originating in 1776, every change in it down to the present time has had for its object the embracing of more numerous classes, until there is hardly a neighbourhood in the United States which does not con tain one or more persons directly interested in some of the gratuities thus promised. In most instances pensions have, at the commencement of each war, been promised for disabilities or death incurred in its prosecution though as to Revolutionary soldiers and their widows, pensions, with out regard to disabilities, were provided long after the rendition of the service. Bounty Lands, at first offered only to the file of the regular army for long terms of enlistment thereafter to be served out, have, by subsequent enactments, been extended to almost all who have borne arms in our foreign hostilities or Indian disturbances. It was the inevitable result that a fabric thus reared, not upon any preconceived plan, but in detached parts to suit temporary purposes, should lack uniformity in its design and consistency in its details. Of the claims under the various Bounty Land laws, some amount to a fee simple, devisable and descendable to heirs general; the descent of some is restricted to specified heirs; and some die with the claim ant. So contrariant are the rules governing the different classes of pensions, that an attempt to enumerate them would almost amount to a treatise on the subject. In many instances, again, the intention of the legislature has been defeated by the employment of inadequate or improper expressions in the laws themselves, or by too narrow and rigid a construction on the part of the department charged with their execution. Congress has constantly interposed to remedy such inconveniences, until, fre quently, the amendments have totally changed the operation of the original law. These amendments are, of course, in a compilation chronologically arranged, separated at wide intervals from the acts to which they refer, and are often tacked to laws upon a different class of pensions, to appropriation bills, or in other places in which an inexperienced person would never think of seeking them.
